How to Lift Up the Wiper Blades on a Nissan Sylphy?
2 Answers
The steps to lift up the wiper blades on a Sylphy are as follows: 1. Insert the key and power on the vehicle without starting the engine. 2. Press the ACC switch. 3. Quickly push the wiper switch upward twice, and the wiper blades will automatically move to the middle of the windshield, allowing you to lift them up from the center position. Below is an introduction to the Sylphy's engine: 1. The Sylphy's engine model is HR16, which includes 1.6L and 1.8L CVVT engines. 2. The HR16DE engine employs multi-valve continuous variable CVTC technology, and the engine block is made using aerospace-grade lightweight aluminum alloy manufacturing techniques, making the engine lightweight, durable, and excellent in heat dissipation. 3. The HR16DE engine incorporates some racing engine design and manufacturing technologies, delivering a power output of up to 80KW.
When I first started driving my Nissan Sylphy, I also wondered about this. The most convenient time to do it is right after parking and turning off the engine. Within 10 seconds, pull the wiper control lever down for two or three seconds, and the wiper blades will automatically lift to the middle of the windshield. Then, you can gently lift them up and stand them vertically. This design is mainly to prevent them from freezing in winter or damaging the glass when replacing the rubber strips. Remember not to force them up when the engine is running, as it can easily burn out the motor. During my last maintenance, the technician mentioned that some older models require opening the hood to lift the wipers, but the Sylphy doesn’t need such hassle. Also, after prolonged exposure to the sun in summer, the rubber strips can stick to the glass, so it’s best to manually lift them once a month to clean the water drainage channels.
