Replacing windshield wiper blades
The wiper blades help remove water from the windshield and rear window. Along with the washer fluid, they are designed to clean the glass and help improve visibility while driving. The windshield and rear window wiper blades can be replaced.
Make sure that the windshield wipers are in service position and raise the wiper blades. Service position is activated and deactivated via the center display when the vehicle is stationary and the windshield wipers are not on.
Press the button on the wiper blade attachment and pull the wiper blade straight out, parallel with the wiper arm.
Slide in a new wiper blade until it clicks into place.
Check to make sure the blade is securely in place.
Press the wiper blade back against the windshield.
Important
If the wiper arms in service position are raised from the windshield, they must be folded back against the windscreen before activating wiping, washing or rain sensor as well as before departure. This is to prevent scratching the paint on the hood.
Wiper blades come in varying lengths
Note
When changing wiper blades, make sure that the blades are of different lengths. The blade on the driver's side is longer than the one on the passenger side.
