FRONT

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury during and following any front wiper system service, be certain that the key is removed from the ignition lock. When the multi-function switch is set to the I (INTERMITTENT or AUTOMATIC) position, the front wipers could move unexpectedly at any time causing injury or damage.

CAUTION: Do not open the hood while the front wiper arms are folded away from the windshield. Both the hood and the wiper arms could become damaged.

CAUTION: Do not allow the wiper arm to spring back against the glass without the wiper blade in place or the glass may be damaged.

CAUTION: Do not rest the front wiper arms on the windshield glass without the wiper blades in place or the glass may become scratched.




1. Lift the front wiper arm (3) to raise the wiper blade and element (1) off of the glass, until the wiper arm hinge is in its over-center position.
2. To remove the blade from the arm, squeeze the two latch release tabs (see arrows) at the lower end of the pivot block together and rotate the lower end of the blade away from the arm far enough to disengage the slot at the upper end of the pivot block from the tab of the bracket (2) on the end of the arm.
