Brakes; Brake Fluid - Pontiac 2007 G5 Owner's Manual

Adding Washer Fluid
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.
298
Open the cap with the
washer symbol on it.
Add washer fluid
until the tank is full. See
Engine Compartment
Overview on page 278
for reservoir location.
•
Fill your washer fluid tank only
three-quarters full when it is very cold.
This allows for 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 your
washer system and paint.
