Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: Before installation, it is crucial to verify that this specific AD91-021 kit is compatible with your vehicle's make, model, and year. Wiper blade arm types can vary significantly.
Installation: Installation typically involves releasing the old wiper blade by pressing a clip or tab on the wiper arm and sliding the old blade off. The new blade then slides onto the arm until it clicks securely into place. Refer to the vehicle's owner manual or manufacturer's instructions if unsure.
Care: To maintain optimal performance and extend the life of your wiper blades:
- Clean Regularly: Wipe the rubber blades with a clean, damp cloth periodically to remove dirt and debris that can cause streaking or damage.
- Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents on the blades.
- Lift When Stationary: If your vehicle will be parked for an extended period, especially in freezing temperatures, consider lifting the wiper arms off the windscreen to prevent them from freezing to the glass.
- Check for Damage: Inspect blades regularly for nicks, tears, or hardening of the rubber.
