When the wiper no longer cleans well, the blade is probably worn or cracked. Replace it.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the wiper arm and other components, do not move the wiper by hand.
1. Raise the wiper arm and rotate the wiper blade
to the right until it unlocks, then remove the blade.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the rear window, do not let the wiper arm fall on it.
2. Pull down the blade rubber and slide it out of the blade
holder.
3. Remove the metal stiffeners from the blade rubber and
install them in the new blade.
CAUTION
Do not bend or discard the stiffeners.
You need to use them again.
