CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES

The wiper arms can be manually moved when the ignition is off. This

allows for ease of blade replacement and cleaning under the blades.

1. Turn the ignition off before

removing the wiper blade.

2. Pull the wiper blade and arm

away from the glass.

3. Squeeze the locking tabs to

release the blade from the arm and

pull the blade away from the arm to

remove it.

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

wiper arm and blade back to the windshield. The wiper arms will

automatically return to their normal position when the ignition is

turned on.

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 the Vehicle Care 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.

Changing the Rear Window Wiper Blade (If Equipped)

To replace the rear wiper blade:

1. Press the wiper blade against the

glass with one hand and hold it.

2. Pull the wiper arm away from the

wiper blade to separate.
