Proceed in reverse order. Make sure that the blade is correctly locked in position.

- In frosty weather, make sure that the wiper blades are not stuck by ice (to avoid the risk of the motor overheating).

They should be replaced as soon as they become less efficient: approximately once a year.

When changing the blade, when it has been removed, do not let the wiper arm fall against the window: risk of breaking the window.
