Beam wiper blade removal method is: 1. Lift the wiper cover and raise the wiper perpendicular to the windshield; 2. Slightly change the angle of the wiper blade with force to lift and remove it. The function of the wiper is: to brush off raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and increasing driving safety. Wiper maintenance methods are: 1. When using the wiper to remove dust from the windshield surface on sunny days, spray glass cleaner and avoid dry wiping; 2. Manually clean other stubborn, hard dirt on the glass; 3. When lifting the wiper blade, hold the spine of the blade and gently place it back; 4. In winter, use an ice scraper to remove ice debris from the windshield surface first; 5. Repair wiper malfunctions as early as possible.

Last year when I replaced my own wiper blades, I encountered a similar situation. Removing frameless wiper blades is actually quite simple. First, turn off the vehicle and park it steadily to prevent the wiper arm from suddenly snapping back and damaging the windshield or yourself. Then gently lift the wiper arm from the windshield to about 90 degrees—many cars have this feature built-in to avoid collisions. Locate the small tab or button at the wiper blade connection point and press it with your thumb; some models require pressing down and then pushing outward. Give it a gentle pull, and the wiper blade will come loose. If it doesn’t go smoothly, don’t force it—the first time I did this, I broke a tab because I forgot to check the model differences—some require a slight twist before removal. After removal, check the windshield for scratches and take the opportunity to clean the connector. The whole process takes just a few minutes. When installing new wiper blades, make sure to align them correctly to avoid streaking.

As a novice car owner, I've learned several labor-saving techniques while removing the frameless wiper blades. First, ensure the car is parked and the engine is turned off, then lift the wiper arm to a suitable position. Locate the plastic locking clip, usually a small groove on the side or top. Gently push or press it with your finger, then slide it directly to release - no tools needed. I was nervous the first time, but the design is foolproof; just avoid using excessive force to prevent breakage. After removal, installing new wipers simply requires reversing these steps. It's advisable to check the wiper rubber for wear and replace it in advance to avoid rainy-day issues. The whole process is as simple, quick, and safe as opening a pull-tab can.
