CAUTION

Ø

Don't bend or discard the
stiffeners. You need to use them
again.

Ø

If the metal stiffeners are
switched, the blade's wiping
efficiency could be reduced.
So don't use the driver's side metal
stiffeners on the passenger's side,
or vice versa.

Ø

Be sure to reinstall the metal
stiffeners in the new blade rubber
so that the curve is the same as it
was in the old blade rubber.

4. Carefully insert the new blade rubber.

Then install the blade assembly in the
reverse order of removal.

NOTE

Install the blade so that the tabs are toward the
bottom of the wiper arm.

q

Replacing Rear Window Wiper
Blade

When the wiper no longer cleans well, the
blade is probably worn or cracked.
Replace it.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to the wiper arm
and other components, do not try to
sweep the wiper arm by hand.

1. Raise the wiper arm.

NOTE

The wiper arm will not remain lifted off the
rear window after being pulled up.
When replacing the wiper blade, continue
holding the wiper arm with one hand during
the work.

2. Firmly rotate the wiper blade to the

right until it unlocks, then remove the
blade.
