DDING ASHER LUID
The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers
and the rear window washer (if equipped) is
shared. The fluid reservoir is located in the
engine compartment. Be sure to check the fluid
level at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with
windshield washer solvent only (not radiator
antifreeze). When refilling the washer fluid
reservoir, take some washer fluid and apply it to
a cloth or towel and wipe clean the wiper
blades; this will help blade performance.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer
system in cold weather, select a solution or
mixture that meets or exceeds the temperature
range of your climate. This rating information
can be found on most washer fluid containers.
WARNING!
Commercial windshield washer solvents are
flammable. They could ignite and burn you.
Care must be exercised when filling or
working around the washer solution.

required.
WARNING!
Battery fluid is a corrosive acid solution and

can burn or even blind you. Do not allow
battery fluid to contact your eyes, skin, or
clothing. Do not lean over a battery when
attaching clamps. If acid splashes in eyes
or on skin, flush the area immediately with
large amounts of water Ú page 337.
Battery gas is flammable and explosive.

Keep flame or sparks away from the
battery. Do not use a booster battery or any
other booster source with an output greater
than 12 Volts. Do not allow cable clamps to
touch each other.
Battery posts, terminals, and related acces-

sories contain lead and lead compounds.
Wash hands after handling.
Vehicles with the Stop/Start system will be


disconnect both batteries. To learn how to
properly disconnect, see an authorized dealer.
