CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES
1. Pull the wiper blade and arm
away from the glass. Turn the blade
as much as possible to gain access
to the lock tab (A). Using a skinny
tool, press the lock tab to release
the blade from the arm loop and
pull the blade from the arm.
2. Attach the new blade to the arm
loop and pull it into place until a
click is heard.
Replace wiper blades at least once per year for optimum performance.
Poor wiper quality can be improved by cleaning the wiper blades and the
windshield. Refer to
Windows and wiper blades
in the
Cleaning
chapter.
To prolong the life of the wiper blades, it is highly recommended to
scrape off the ice on the windshield before turning on the wipers. The
layer of ice has many sharp edges and can damage the micro edge of the
wiper rubber element.
