Insert the wiper insert starting
from the claw at the center of
the wiper blade. Pass the wiper
insert through the 3 claws so
that it sticks out from the stop-
per, and then pass the wiper
insert through the final remain-
ing claw.
Applying a small amount of washer fluid
to the wiper insert can make it easier to
insert the claws into the grooves.

Check that the wiper blade
claws are fitted in the grooves of
the wiper insert.
If the wiper blade claws are not fitted in
the grooves of the wiper insert, grasp
the wiper insert and slide it back and
forth multiple times to insert the claws
into the grooves.
Lightly lift up the center of the wiper
insert to make the rubber easier to
slide.

NOTICE
■
When lifting the windshield wip-
ers
● When raising the wiper arms off the
windshield, lift up the driver side
first, and then lift up passenger
side. When returning the wipers to
their original position, return the
passenger side first.
●
Do not lift a windshield wiper by the
wiper blade. Otherwise, the wiper
blade may be deformed.
● Do not operate the wiper lever
when the windshield wipers are
lifted. Otherwise, the windshield
wipers may contact the hood, pos-
sibly resulting in damage to the
windshield wipers and/or hood.
■
To prevent damage
● Be careful not to damage the claws
when replacing the wiper insert.
●
After the wiper blade is removed
from the wiper arm, place a cloth,
etc., between the rear window and
wiper arm to prevent damage to the
rear window.
● Be sure not to pull excessively on
the wiper insert or deform its metal
plates.
