Wiper Blades

CAUTION

Ø Hot waxes applied by automatic

car washers have been known to

affect the wiper's ability to clean

windows.

Ø To prevent damage to the wiper

blades, don't use gasoline,

kerosene, paint thinner, or other

solvents on or near them.

Ø When the wiper lever is in the

AUTO position and the ignition

switch is in the ON position, the

wipers may move automatically in

the following cases:

Ø

If the windshield above the rain

sensor is touched.

Ø

If the windshield above the rain

sensor is wiped with a cloth.

Ø

If the windshield is struck with

a hand or other object.

Ø

If the rain sensor is struck with

a hand or other object from

inside the vehicle.

Be careful not to pinch hands or

fingers as it may cause injury, or

damage the wipers. When

washing or servicing your Mazda,

make sure the wiper lever is in the

OFF position.

Contamination of either the windshield or

the blades with foreign matter can reduce

wiper effectiveness. Common sources are

insects, tree sap, and hot wax treatments

used by some commercial car washes.

If the blades are not wiping properly,

clean the window and blades with a good

cleaner or mild detergent; then rinse

thoroughly with clean water. Repeat if

necessary.

Replacing Windshield Wiper Blades

When the wipers no longer clean well, the

blades are probably worn or cracked.

Replace them.

and other components, don't try to

sweep the wiper arm by hand.

NOTE

To prevent damage to the wiper arm blades

when raising both the driver and passenger

side wiper arms, raise the driver side wiper

arm first. Conversely, when setting down the

wiper arms, set the passenger side wiper arm

down first.

1. Raise the wiper arm and turn the blade

assembly to expose the plastic locking

clip.

Compress the clip and slide the

assembly downward; then lift it off the

arm.

Plastic locking clip

CAUTION

To prevent damage to the windshield
