Windshield Washers
Check the level in the windshield
washer reservoir at least monthly
during normal use. In bad weather,
when you use the washers often,
check the level every time you stop
for fuel.
The low washer level indicator will
light when the level is low (see page
71
).

Fill the reservoir with a good-quality
windshield washer fluid. This
increases the cleaning capability and
prevents freezing in cold weather.
When you refill the reservoir, clean
the edges of the windshield wiper
blades with windshield washer fluid
on a clean cloth. This will help to
condition the blade edges.
Do not use engine antif reeze or a
vinegar/water solution in the
windshield washer reservoir.
Antif reeze can damage your vehicle's
paint, while a vinegar/water solution
can damage the windshield washer
pump.
Use only commercially-available
windshield washer f luid.
