Instruments and controls
Do not operate the wipers when the windshield or rear window
is dry. This may scratch the glass, damage the wiper blades and
cause the wiper motor to burn out. Before operating the wiper on
a dry windshield or rear window, always use the windshield
washer.
In freezing weather, be sure that the wiper blades are not fro-
zen to the windshield or rear window before switching on the
wipers. Attempting to operate the wiper with the blades frozen to
the window glass could cause not only the wiper blades to be
damaged but also the wiper motor to burn out. If the wiper blade
is frozen to the window glass, be sure to operate the defroster,
wiper deicer (if equipped) or rear window defogger before turning
on the wiper.
If the wipers stop during operation because of ice or some oth-
er obstruction on the window, the wiper motor could burn out
even if the wiper switch is turned off. If this occurs, promptly stop
the vehicle in a safe place, turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK”
position and clean the window glass to allow proper wiper opera-
tion.
Use clean water if windshield washer fluid is unavailable. In
areas where water freezes in winter, use SUBARU Windshield
Washer Fluid or the equivalent. (See “Windshield washer fluid”
section in chapter 10.)
Also, when driving the vehicle when there are freezing tempera-
tures, use non-freezing type wiper blades.
Do not clean the wiper blades with gasoline or a solvent, such
as paint thinner or benzene. This will cause deterioration of the
wiper blades.
NOTE
The wiper operates only when the ignition switch is in the “ON”
or “ACC” position.
Clean your wiper blades and window glass periodically with a
washer solution to prevent streaking, and to remove accumulations
of road salt or road film. Keep the washer button depressed at least
for 1 second so that washer solution will be sprinkled all over the
