Blade replacement

When the wipers no longer clean adequately, the blades may be worn or cracked, and require replacement.

To prevent damage to the wiper arms or other components, do not attempt to move the wipers manually.

The use of a non-specified wiper blade could result in wiper malfunction and failure.

  • In order to prevent damage to the hood and the wiper arms, the wiper arms should only be lifted when in the top wiping position.

  • Always return the wiper arms to the windshield before driving.
