Install the new blade assembly by inserting the centre part into the slot in the wiper arm until it clicks into place.
If the replacement is complete, put down the wiper arm to place it on the rear windscreen, and turn the vehicle to POWER ON and operate the wipers to check the blade is installed correctly.
If the wiper arm receives too much force whilst pulling the blade, the centre part may be damaged.

The wiper could not operate for approx. 10 seconds when the wiper is operated without washer fluid or the blades are frozen. This is not a malfunction, it is a wiper protection system activated by motor overload circuit within the wiper motor.
-
The front windscreen should be cleaned with water hose and wiped with clean towel with wiper blades raised up. Also, the wiper blades should be wiped clean when the grease or wax is applied to the blades.
