Fill the reservoir with a good-quality
windshield washer f luid. This
increases the cleaning capability and
prevents f reezing in cold weather.
When you ref ill the reservoir, clean
the edges of the windshield wiper
blades with windshield washer f luid
on a clean cloth. This will help to
condition the blade edges.
Check the f luid level in the
windshield washer reservoir at least
monthly during normal use.
To check washer f luid level, cover
the reservoir cap center hole with
your f inger while lif ting the cap and
the attached measuring tube. The
washer f luid level in the tube will
indicate the washer f luid level in the
reservoir.
If the washer f luid is low, a ‘‘LOW
WASHER FLUID’’ message appears
on the multi-information display.
