When using concentrated washer fluid,
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
adding water.
Don’t mix water with ready-to-use washer
fluid. Water can cause the solution to freeze
and damage your washer fluid tank and
other parts of the washer system.
Also,
water doesn’t clean as well as washer fluid.
Fill your washer fluid tank only
314 full
when it’s very cold. This allows for
expansion, which could damage the tank if
it is completely full. Don’t use radiator antifreeze in your
windshield washer. It can damage your
washer system and paint.
