Step by step.

- 02
Place a towel on the glass and lift one arm only enough to reach its blade.

Press the locking tab and slide the old blade from the arm.
- 04
Install the compatible replacement until it clicks, then perform a gentle push-pull check.
- 05
Lower the arm carefully and disable Wiper Service Mode.
Important limits
- The wiper arms do not lock in a raised position.
- Lifting an arm too far or letting it fall can crack the windshield.
- Never run the wipers until both new blades are positively locked.
Quick checks.
