How to Check Power Steering Fluid
Turn the key off, let the engine compartment cool down,
wipe the cap and the top of the reservoir clean, then
unscrew the cap and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag.
Replace the cap and completely tighten it. Then remove
the cap again and look at the fluid level on the dipstick.
The level should be at the FULL COLD mark.
If necessary, add only enough fluid to bring the
level up to the mark.
What to Use
To determine what kind of fluid to use, see
"Recommended Fluids and Lubricants" in the Index.
Always use the proper fluid. Failure to use the proper
fluid can cause leaks and damage hoses and seals.

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.

Adding Washer Fluid

If your vehicle is not equipped with a Driver Information
Center (DIC), a washer dip tube has been provided to
check fluid level. Place fingers over the holes on the dip
tube handle and pull the tube out of the bottle. If there
is no fluid in the tube, windshield washer fluid needs to
be added.
If your vehicle is equipped with a DIC, the
WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID LOW message
will appear when windshield washer fluid needs to
be added.
Open the cap labeled WASHER FLUID. Add washer
fluid until the tank is full.
The washer fluid reservoir
is located on the passenger's
side of the engine
compartment. See "Engine
Compartment Overview"
in the Index for more
information on location.
