Maintenance and care
■ Wiper blade and wiper insert handling
Improper handling may result in damage to the wiper blades or wiper insert. If
you have any concerns about replacing the wiper blades or wiper insert your-
self, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
■ Wiper blade cap
The cap cannot be removed, as it is integrated with the front wiper blade.
NOTICE
■ To prevent damage
● Be careful not to damage the claws when replacing the wipers.
● After the wiper blade is removed from the wiper arm, place a cloth, etc.,
between the windshield and wiper arm to prevent damage to the wind-
shield.
● Be sure not to pull excessively on the wiper insert.
