seconds.
4. Raise the wiper arm and pull out the
wiper blade assembly.
5. Install the new blade assembly by
inserting the center part into the slot
in the wiper arm until it clicks into
place.
When replacement is complete, Place
the wiper arm on the rear windshield,
turn the vehicle to ON position and
operate the wipers to check the blade
is installed correctly.
6. Make sure the blade assembly is
installed firmly by trying to pull it
slightly.
To prevent damage to the wiper arms or
other components, have the wiper
blades replaced by an authorized Kia
dealer.
僅 Do not use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near
them.
僅 Do not attempt to move the wipers
manually.
僅 The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could result in wiper malfunc

tion and failure.
僅Do not allow the wiper arm to fall
against the windshield, since it may
chip or crack the windshield.
僅 Pulling the blade with too much force
can damage the blade assembly.
僅 The wiper will not operate for approxi

mately 10 seconds without washer
fluid or the blades are frozen. This is
not a malfunction, it is a wiper protec

tion system activated by the wiper
motor overload circuit.
