Using this ice scraper is a breeze. For ice removal, hold the cone-shaped handle comfortably. Use the wide side to cover more area on the windshield. If there's thick ice, tap the end with mini spikes on the ice to break it up. When you need to add washer fluid, remove the tip of the tool to turn it into a funnel. Pour the fluid carefully to avoid spills. As for maintenance, after each use, wipe the ice scraper dry and store it in a cool, dry place. It's made of tough PP material, but still avoid dropping it from a high place or applying excessive force to prevent any potential damage. If you notice any issues, reach out to us right away.
