1Move the wiper blade until a
click sound can be heard and
the claw detaches, and then
remove the wiper blade from the
wiper arm.
2 Pull the wiper insert out past the
stopper on the wiper blade, and
then continue to pull until it is
completely removed.
Lightly grasp between the claws of the wiper blade to allow the wiper insert to lift up, making it easier to remove.
3 Remove the 2 metal plates from
the old wiper insert and install
them to the replacement wiper
insert.
4 Insert the wiper insert starting
from the claw at the center of
the wiper blade. Pass the wiper
insert through the 3 claws so
that it sticks out from the stop-
per, and then pass the wiper
insert through the final remain-
ing claw.
Applying a small amount of washer fluid to the wiper insert can make it easier to insert the claws into the grooves.
5 Check that the wiper blade
claws are fitted in the grooves of
the wiper insert.
If the wiper blade claws are not fitted in
the grooves of the wiper insert, grasp the wiper insert and slide it back and forth multiple times to insert the claws
into the grooves.
Lightly lift up the center of the wiper insert to make the rubber easier to

reverse the procedure in step 1.
After installing the wiper blade, check that the connection is locked.
QWiper blade and wiper insert han-dling
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 yourself, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
NOTICE
QWhen lifting the windshield wip-
ers
OWhen raising the wiper arms off the windshield, lift up the driver side
first, and then lift up passenger side. When returning the wipers to their original position, return the
passenger side first.
ODo not lift a windshield wiper by the
wiper blade. Otherwise, the wiper blade may be deformed.
ODo not operate the wiper lever when the windshield wipers are lifted. Otherwise, the windshield
wipers may contact the hood, pos- sibly resulting in damage to the windshield wipers and/or hood.
QTo prevent damage
OBe careful not to damage the claws when replacing the wiper insert.
OAfter the wiper blade is removed from the wiper arm, place a cloth,
etc., between the rear window and wiper arm to prevent damage to the rear window.
OBe sure not to pull excessively on the wiper insert or deform its metal
plates.
