Practical hints Replacing wiper blades Installing wiper blades Slide the wiper blade onto the wiper arm until it locks in place. Rotate the wiper blade into a position parallel to the wiper arm. Fold the wiper arm backward to rest on the windshield. Make sure you hold on to the wiper when folding the wiper arm back. ! Never open the hood when the wiper arms are folded forward. Hold on to the wiper when folding the wiper arm back. If released, the force of the impact from the tensioning spring could crack the windshield. Do not allow the wiper arms to contact the windshield glass without a wiper blade inserted. Make sure the wiper blades are properly installed.
