With the ignition on and engine

Lift wiper arm 3, pull tab 2 (move-
ment A) and push the blade upwards.
To refit
Slide the blade along the arm until it
clips on. Make sure that the blade is
correctly locked in position.
– In frosty weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the motor
overheating).
– Check the condition of the wiper
blades.
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
Whilst changing the blade, take care
not to drop the arm onto the window
after it has been removed as this
