̈ Lift up the wiper arm as far as you need
to position the wiper blade under the
wiper arm and hold it.
̈ Carefully fold the wiper arm back and
make sure the taper piece
4 slides
into the recess 1 at the wiper blade.
̈ Slide the tab 2 back in the direction of
arrow 3 until it audibly engages.
The wiper blade is locked.
! Hold on to the wiper arm. If released, the
force of the impact from the tensioning spring
could crack the windshield.
! Make certain that the square recess 5 on
the taper piece 4 is on the top, otherwise the
taper piece 4 cannot slide into the recess 1 at
the wiper blade. If the square recess 5 is not at
the top turn the taper piece 4 around to bring
the square recess 5 to the top.
!
Make certain that the wiper blades are prop-
erly installed. Improperly installed wiper blades
may cause windshield damage.
