Windshield Wiper/Washer System, Checking Washer Nozzle Adjustment And Adjusting, If Necessary

NOTE:

In cases where contamination in spray jet results in an uneven spray field, remove the spray jet and rinse it with water in the opposite direction of the spray flow. Cleaning with compressed air in the opposite direction of the spraying direction is permitted afterward. Do not use any other objects to clean the washer nozzles.
