First, pull the handbrake and turn off the engine. Then, within 10 seconds, activate the windshield washer switch by pulling the wiper lever towards yourself. Note that some models may use a physical button instead. After pressing the windshield washer switch, the wiper will automatically move to the middle position of the windshield. Finally, manually lift the wiper upright. To reset it, simply reverse the steps. After turning on the power, press the wiper switch once to reset it. The wiper assembly includes components such as the motor, reducer, and four-bar linkage mechanism.

Setting up the wipers on the Xingrui is quite simple, and here's how I do it: After parking and turning off the engine, don't rush to get out of the car. First, press the ignition switch to the ACC position or hold it for a few seconds to activate the car's electrical system. Then, quickly press the wiper control lever to make the wipers sweep once and stop in the middle of the windshield. At this point, you can gently lift the wiper blades to stand them up without scratching the glass. Always check for any foreign objects on the windshield before each operation to avoid damaging the rubber strips by forcing them. In cold weather, it's best to spray some windshield washer fluid to soften the rubber strips before operating. My experience is that forgetting to turn off the power and operating directly can easily trigger an alarm or blow a fuse, so be patient and follow these steps for safety first.

I also encountered the trouble of wipers being difficult to lift. At first, I didn't know the proper method and just pulled them hard, which ended up scratching the glass and costing me extra money for new wiper blades. The solution is quite simple: after parking and turning off the engine, wait for about ten seconds, and the wipers will return to their resting position, making them easier to operate. Alternatively, when the ACC is on, briefly press the wiper button to stop them at the maintenance point, then manually lift them. Wearing a pair of thin gloves can provide better grip and make the operation smoother, especially when it's wet, ensuring both safety and efficiency. Regularly clean the area where the blades meet the windshield to prevent jamming, and older cars require more frequent checks to avoid rusting of metal parts.

To ensure the safe use of wipers, make sure the ignition switch is completely turned off before operation. Do not adjust them while the engine is running to avoid damaging the circuit. When in the maintenance position, lift the wipers to prevent straining the motor system, and remember to wear protective gear to prevent hand slippage. In cold weather, spray warm water or de-icer to soften the rubber blades before operation. The entire process should take no more than 30 seconds—avoid rushing to prevent wiper arm deformation or motor overload, which could compromise driving safety.
