– In frosty weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the motor
overheating).
– Check the condition of the wiper

Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency

not to drop the arm onto the window
after it has been removed as this
may break the window.
