If the wiper blade rubber has deteriorated, it will leave streaks and the hard
surfaces of the blade may scratch the window glass.

2. Place a cloth on the edge of the lock
tab. Push the lock tab up with a flat-tip
screwdriver.
3. Slide the holder off the wiper arm.
4. Slide the wiper blade out of the holder by pulling the tabbed end out.

blade that has been removed, and
mount them to a new wiper blade.
Correctly align the wiper blade
protrusion and the retainer grooves.

holder from the bottom end. The tab on
the holder should fit in the indent of the
wiper blade.

arm, then push down the lock tab.
