Windscreen washer
Plain water on its own is not sufficient for the windscreen
washer system.

Plain water on its own is not enough to clean the glass properly. It
is therefore advisable to add a suitable washer fluid additive (with
wax solvent) to the water. A washer fluid with freeze-resistant addi-
tive should be used in winter.
Caution
Never put in radiator anti-freeze or other additives.
Never use washer fluid which contains paint thinners or solvents
as it can damage the paintwork.
