Installing The Rear Wiper

1. Lift the rear wiper arm pivot cap away from the glass

to allow the rear wiper blade to be raised off of the

glass.

NOTE:

The rear wiper arm cannot be fully raised off the

glass unless the wiper arm pivot cap is unsnapped first.

Attempting to fully raise the rear wiper arm without

unsnapping the wiper arm pivot cap may damage the

vehicle.
2. Lift the rear wiper arm fully off the glass.
3. Insert the wiper blade pivot pin into the opening on

the end of the wiper arm. Grab the bottom end of the

wiper arm with one hand, and press the wiper blade

flush with the wiper arm until it snaps into place.

4. Lower the wiper blade onto the glass and snap the

wiper arm pivot cap back into place.

Adding Washer Fluid

The windshield and rear window washers share the same

fluid reservoir. The fluid reservoir is located in the front

of the engine compartment. Be sure to check the fluid

level in the reservoir at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir

with windshield washer solvent (not radiator antifreeze)

and operate the system for a few seconds to flush out the

residual water.
When refilling the washer fluid reservoir, take some

washer fluid and apply it to a cloth or towel and wipe

clean the wiper blades, this will help blade performance.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer system

in cold weather, select a solution or mixture that meets or

exceeds the temperature range of your climate. This

rating information can be found on most washer fluid

containers.
