Replacing the windscreen wiper blades is very straightforward and does not require special precautions: the only thing to consider is the length of the blades (ensure that the blade you are about to install is the same length as the original). First, lift the wiper arm, rotate the blade ninety degrees, release the retaining clip of the blade from the arm, and push it down to remove it; then fit the new blade by aligning the mounting support and pressing it into the corresponding seat of the arm until the clip clicks into place.
