    This is from Toyota:
    1. REMOVE FRONT WIPER BLADE
    (a) Disengage the holder of the front wiper blade as shown in the illustration.

    (b) Remove the front wiper blade from the front wiper arm as shown in the illustration.
    NOTICE:
    Do not lower the front wiper arm with the front wiper blade removed. The arm tip may damage the windshield surface.
    Additionally, from me:
    Don't let the wiper arm slam down onto the windshield! Wrap the tip of the wiper arm with a towel, and gently lay it down until you are ready to reinstall/install the wiper blade.
