• Check your vehicle's wiper arm connection type to ensure compatibility with the Multi-Clip system
• Confirm if your vehicle requires a single blade or a pair for replacement

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and longevity, clean the rubber element of the wiper blade periodically with a damp cloth to remove road grime and debris. Replace the wiper blade at least once a year or as soon as you notice streaking or reduced wiping efficiency.
