MAINTENANCE
Window Washer Fluid
Add washer fluid as necessary (see page 139). Pour it carefully, and do not
overflow the reservoir.
For Jump starting, see page 120.
Checking the Battery
The battery condition is monitored by the sensor on the negative terminal. If there
is a problem with the sensor, have your vehicle checked by a dealer. Check the
battery terminals monthly for corrosion.
The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas during normal operation.
A spark or flame can cause the battery to explode with enough force to kill or
seriously hurt you.
When conducting any battery maintenance, wear protective clothing and a
face shield, or have a skilled technician do it.
WARNING
If the washer fluid is low,
a message appears on the
multi-information display.Wa sher Fluid Lo w
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash your hands after handling.
If there is a problem with
the battery sensor, a
message appears on the
multi-information display.Charging
System Problem
Do not use engine antifreeze or a vinegar/water solution in the windshield washer
reservoir. Antifreeze can damage your vehicle’s paint. A vinegar/water solution can
damage the windshield washer pump.
NOTICE
If your battery is labeled AGM, consult your dealer before you connect a battery
charger. AGM batteries require compatible chargers.
