What You Will Need
Before getting started, gather the following tools and materials:
- Bosch Aerotwin Windshield Wipers
- Microfiber cloth
Step 1: Remove the Old Wipers
Begin by lifting the wiper arm away from the windshield. Make sure it stays in a raised position before continuing.
Next, locate the small tab or latch on the underside of the wiper blade. Press it to release the blade from the wiper arm. With a gentle jiggle, the old wiper blade should come off easily. Repeat this process for both wiper arms.
Step 2: Prepare the New Wipers
Take out your new Bosch Aerotwin windshield wipers from the packaging. Before installation, it’s always a good idea to gently clean the rubber surface with a microfiber cloth. This helps remove any dust or debris that may have accumulated during storage.
Step 3: Attach the New Wipers
Position the new Aerotwin wiper blade in line with the wiper arm. Ensure that the hook on the arm fits securely into the adapter on the wiper blade. Apply a moderate amount of pressure and push the wiper blade until you hear an audible click. This indicates that the blade is properly attached.
Repeat the process for the other wiper arm.
Step 4: Test the Wipers
Now that you have installed the Aerotwin wipers, test them to ensure they are working correctly. Turn on your windshield wipers and observe their movement. Check for any unusual sounds or skipping motions that may indicate faulty installation.
If everything looks good, lower the wiper arms back onto the windshield.
Step 5: Maintain and Replace Regularly
Keep in mind that regular maintenance is crucial to keep your wipers performing optimally. Clean the rubber regularly with a microfiber cloth and replace the wipers following the manufacturer’s recommendations or at least once a year, depending on your usage and climate.
By following these simple steps, you can easily install Bosch Aerotwin Windshield Wipers and ensure clear visibility during your drives. Upgrade your wipers today and enjoy a safer and more comfortable driving experience!
