CHECKING THE WIPER BLADES

Run the tip of your fingers over the edge of the blade
to check for roughness.

Clean the wiper blades with washer fluid or water
applied with a soft sponge or cloth.

CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES

1. Pull the wiper blade and arm away
from the glass.

2. Squeeze the locking tabs to release
the blade from the arm and pull the
blade away from the arm to remove it.

3. Attach the new blade to the arm
and snap it into place.

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.

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.
