give superior wiping performance in snowy conditions.
Be sure to use blades that are suitable for your vehi-cle.
During high-speed driving, non-freezing type
wiper blades may not perform as well as stan-

your vehicle and may affect ride, handling,
braking and speedometer/odometer calibra-

of vehicle control. y Do not use a combination of radial, belted
bias or bias tires since it may cause dangerous
handling characteristi cs and lead to an acci-
