Changing rear window wiper blade
The rear wiper arm is designed without a service position. This reduces
the risk of damage to the blade in an automatic car wash.
To replace the wiper blade:
1. Grab the wiper arm with one hand
close to the arm/blade joint and pull
it as far away from the glass as
possible. Do not use excessive force
because it can break the wiper arm
at the heel. Hold it there until the
next step.
2. Grab the primary structure of the blade with the other hand close to
the arm/blade joint.
3. Grip tightly and press on the arm/blade joint from beneath and
separate the blade from the arm.
4. Attach the new wiper to the wiper
arm and press it into place until a
click is heard.
If you find this procedure too difficult,
please see your dealer.
