Windshield Washer Fluid

What to Use
When adding windshield washer
fluid, be sure to read the
manufacturer's instructions before
use. If the vehicle will be operating
in an area where the temperature
may fall below freezing, use a fluid
that has sufficient protection
against freezing.
Adding Washer Fluid
When the windshield washer fluid
reservoir is low, a WASHER FLUID
LOW ADD FLUID message will
be displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See DIC
Warnings and Messages on
page 3-50 for more information.
Open the cap with the washer
symbol on it. Add washer fluid until
the tank is full. See Engine
Compartment Overview on
page 5-10 for reservoir location.
Service and Appearance Care
Notice:
•
When using concentrated
washer fluid, follow the
manufacturer's instructions for
adding water.
•
Do not mix water with
ready-to-use washer fluid.
Water can cause the solution
to freeze and damage your
washer fluid tank and other
parts of the washer system.
Also, water does not clean as
well as washer fluid.
•
Fill the washer fluid tank only
three-quarters full when it is
very cold. This allows for fluid
expansion if freezing occurs,
which could damage the tank if
it is completely full.
•
Do not use engine coolant
(antifreeze) in your windshield
washer. It can damage the
vehicle's windshield washer
system and paint.
