But use only washer fluid in cold
weather to prevent it from freezing.

washer fluid is dangerous. If
sprayed on the windshield, it will
dirty the windshield, affect your
visibility, and could result in an
accident. Use only windshield
washer fluid or plain water in the
reservoir.

 Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and hood hinges and locks,
should be lubricated each time the

nonfreezing lubricant on locks during
cold weather.

secondary latch keeps the hood from
opening when the primary latch is
released.

clean the window and blades with a
good cleaner or mild detergent; then
rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Repeat if necessary.
CAUTION
