and firmly press down on the clip to snap it
into place.

To remove and replace the wiper blade element
do the following:

1. The wiper blade element has two notches at

one end which are engaged by the bottom
claw set of the wiper blade. At the notched
end of the wiper blade, pull the wiper
blade element from the wiper blade assembly.

2. To replace the element, start at the heel end

of the wiper blade, which is the end nearest
to the base of the wiper arm, and slide
the wiper blade element, notched end last,
into the wiper blade claw sets.

3. To engage the last claw into the notched end

of the wiper blade element, squeeze the
wiper blade element at the notched area, and
push the wiper blade element so the claw
fits into the notch.

4. Be sure the two wiper blade element notches

are engaged by the last claw set, and that all
the other claws are properly engaged in the
slots of the wiper blade element on both sides.
