Windshield Washer Fluid

What to Use
When you need windshield washer fluid, be sure to read
the manufacturer's instructions before use. If you will be
operating your vehicle in an area where the temperature
may fall below freezing, use a fluid that has sufficient
protection against freezing. See "Engine Compartment
Overview" in the Index for reservoir location.

Adding Washer Fluid

The CHECK WASHER FLUID message will be
displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
when the fluid is low.
Open the cap with the washer symbol on it.
Add washer fluid until the tank is full.
The windshield washer
fluid reservoir is located
next to the engine air
cleaner/filter on the
driver's side of the vehicle.
NOTICE:
D
When using concentrated washer fluid,
follow the manufacturer's instructions for
adding water.
D
Don't mix water with ready
fluid. Water can cause the solution to
freeze and damage your washer fluid
tank and other parts of the washer
system. Also, water doesn't clean as well
as washer fluid.
D
Fill your washer fluid tank only
-
three quarters full when it's very cold.
This allows for expansion if freezing
occurs, which could damage the tank if
it is completely full.
D
Don't use engine coolant (antifreeze) in
your windshield washer. It can damage
your washer system and paint.
