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.

Type A
1. Raise the wiper arm and turn the wiper blade assembly to expose the plastic locking clip.

3. Lift it off the arm.
