others to be burned. The air cleaner
not only cleans the air, it stops the
flame if the engine backfires. If it is
not there, and the engine backfires,
you could be burned. Do not drive
with the air cleaner removed, and be
careful when working on the engine
with the air cleaner removed.
Never pour fuel into the throttle body
or attempt to start the engine with
the air cleaner removed. Doing so
could result in serious injury.
CAUTION
After wiper blade replacement, return
the wiper arm to its original position.
Otherwise it may be damaged when
the engine hood is opened.
Make sure the wiper blades contact
the glass; otherwise the arms may be
damaged from wind pressure.
Worn windshield wiper blades can
damage the windshield and impair
driver vision.CLEANINGIf your windshield is not clear after using the
windshield washer or if a wiper blade chatters
when running, wax or other material may be on
the blade or windshield.
Clean the outside of the windshield with a
washer solution or a mild detergent. Your wind-
shield is clean if beads do not form when rinsing
with clear water.
Clean the blade by wiping it with a cloth soaked
in a washer solution or a mild detergent. Thenrinse the blade with clear water. If your wind-
shield is still not clear after cleaning the blades
and using the wiper, replace the blades.WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
