¾Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to
affect the
wiper's ability to clean windows.
¾To prevent damage to the wiper blades,
do not use petrol, paraffin, paint thinner,
or other solvents on or near them.
¾When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is switched ON,
the wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
¾If the windscreen above the rain sensor
is touched.
¾If the windscreen above the rain sensor
is wiped with a cloth.
¾If the windscreen is struck with a hand
or other object.
¾If the rain sensor is struck with a hand
or other object from inside the vehicle.
Be careful not to pinch hands or

wipers. When washing or servicing the
vehicle, make sure the wiper lever is in
the OFF position.

¾To prevent damage to the wiper arms
and other components, do not try to
sweep the wiper arm by hand.

affected.
NOTE
When raising both windscreen wiper arms,
raise the driver's side wiper arm first.
When lowering the wiper arms, slowly
lower the wiper arm from the passenger's

Read the following precautions carefully before using the battery or inspecting to
ensure safe and correct handling:
Always wear eye protection when working near the battery:
Working without eye protection is dangerous. Battery fluid contains SULPHURIC ACID which
could cause blindness if splashed into your eyes. Also, hydrogen gas produced during normal
battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode.
Wear eye protection and protective gloves to prevent contact with battery
fluid:
Spilled battery
fluid is dangerous.
Battery fluid contains SULPHURIC ACID which could cause serious injuries if it gets in eyes, or
on the skin or clothing. If this happens, immediately
flush your eyes with water for 15 minutes
or wash your skin thoroughly and get medical attention.
Always keep batteries out of the reach of children:
Allowing children to play near batteries is dangerous. Battery fluid could cause serious injuries
if it gets in the eyes or on the skin.
Keep flames and sparks away from open battery cells and do not allow metal tools to
contact the positive (
) or negative () terminal of the battery when working near a battery.
Do not allow the positive (
) terminal to contact the vehicle body:
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced during
normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An exploding battery
can cause serious burns and injuries. Keep all
flames including cigarettes and sparks away
from open battery cells.
