attention should also be given to hood latching compo-

nents to ensure proper function. When performing other

underhood services, the hood latch, release mechanism

and safety catch should be cleaned and lubricated.

The external lock cylinders should be lubricated twice a

year, preferably in the Fall and Spring. Apply a small

amount of a high quality lubricant such as MOPAR威

Lock Cylinder Lubricant directly into the lock cylinder.

Windshield Wiper Blades

Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the

windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a

mild nonabrasive cleaner. This will remove accumula-

tions of salt or road film.

Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods

may cause deterioration of the wiper blades. Always use

washer fluidwhen using thewipers to remove saltor dirt

from a dry windshield.

Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost or ice from

the windshield. Keepthe blade rubber out of contactwith

petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.

NOTE: Life expectancy of wiper blades varies depend-

ing on geographical area and frequency of use. Poor

performance of blades may be present with chattering,

marks, water lines or wet spots. If any condition is

present please proceed to clean wiper blades with humid

cloth removing any debris that may be affecting its

function.

Adding Washer Fluid

The windshield washer fluid reservoir is located in the

front of the engine compartment. Be sure to check the

fluid level 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.
