Maintenance and care
install them to the replace-
ment wiper insert.
5 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 stopper, and then
pass the wiper insert through
the final remaining claw.
Applying a small amount of washer
fluid to the wiper insert can make it
easier to insert the claws into the
grooves.
6Check that the wiper blade
claws are fitted in the
grooves of the wiper insert.
If the wiper blade claws are not fit-
ted in the grooves of the wiper
insert, grasp the wiper insert and
slide it back and fo rth multiple times
to insert the claws into the grooves.
Lightly lift up the center of the wiper
insert to make the rubber easier to slide.

When installing a wiper
blade, reverse the procedure
in step 1.
After installing the wiper blade,
check that the connection is locked.
■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 yourself, contact your
Toyota dealer.
NOTICE
■When lifting the windshield
wipers
●When raising the wiper arms off
the windshield, lift up the driver
side first, and then lift up pas-
senger side. When returning the
wipers to their original position,
return the passenger side first.
●Do not lift a windshield wiper by
the wiper blade. Otherwise, the
wiper blade may be deformed.
●Do not operate the wiper lever
when the windshield wipers are
lifted. Otherwise, the wind-
shield wipers may contact the
hood, possibly resulting in dam-
age to the windshield wipers
and/or hood.
