WINDSHIELD WIPER
BLADESG080A02A-AATThe wiper blades should be carefully in-
spected from time to time and cleaned to
remove accumulations of road film or other
debris. To clean the wiper blades and
arms, use a clean sponge or cloth with a
mild soap or detergent and water. If the
wipers continue to streak or smear the
glass, replace them with genuine Hyundai
replacement parts or their equivalent.

CAUTION:
o Do not operate the wipers on dry glass.
This can result in more rapid wear of the
wiper blades and may scratch the glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact
with petroleum products such as en-
gine oil, gasoline, etc.
