Changing Wiper Blades
If the wiper blades leave streaks across the windshield, try cleaning them first with a
paper towel or soft cloth and wiper fluid. If the wiper blade rubber has deteriorated,
you should change the wiper blades.
Changing the Front Wiper Blade Rubber
1. Lift the driver side wiper arm first, then the
passenger side.
2. Push the lock tab up.
3. Slide the blade holder from the wiper arm.
4. Slide the wiper blade out from its holder by
pulling from the end of the blade having the
molded-in stopper block.
5. Remove the retainers from the old rubber
blade, and mount to a new rubber blade.
Correctly align the rubber protrusion and the
retainer grooves.
6. Pull the new wiper blade onto the holder from
the end not having the stopper block. The tabs
on the holder should fit in the indents of the
wiper blade.
7. Slide the wiper holder onto the wiper arm, then
push down the lock tab.
8. Lower the passenger side wiper arm first, then
the driver side.
Avoid dropping the wiper arm, as it may damage the windshield.
