NOTEBecause heavy ice and snow can
jam the wiper blades, the wiper
motor is protected by a circuit
breaker. This mechanism will
automatically stop operation of the
blades, but only for about 5
minutes.
If this happens, turn off the wiper
switch and park off the
right-of-way. After 5 minutes, turn
on the switch and the blades
should operate normally. If they
don’ t, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
