Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement Instructions

Model: Mercedes Classe S MK 3, W140 - Years 1991-1998
Part: Windshield wipers

Replacing the wiper blades requires two different steps to install the passenger side and then the driver side; start with the passenger side: to lift the wiper arm and detach the blade, fully open the hood, raising it to 90° to engage the hinges; at this point, lift the wiper arm, rotate the hook 90°, and release the lock to remove it and insert the new one; then lower the hood: the wipers will rise enough to repeat the operation on the driver side.
