Replacing Windscreen Wiper Blades
When the wipers no longer clean well, the
blades are probably worn or cracked.
Replace them.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the wiper arms
and other components, do not try to
sweep the wiper arm by hand.
NOTE
When raising both windscreen wiper
arms, raise the driver's side wiper arm
first. When lowering the wiper arms,
slowly lower the wiper arm from the
passenger's side first while supporting it
with your hand. Forcefully lowering the
wiper arms could damage the wiper arm
and blade, and may scratch or crack the
windscreen.
1. Raise the wiper arm and turn the blade
assembly to expose the plastic locking
clip. Compress the clip and slide the
assembly downward; then lift it off the
arm.
