Check the level in the windshield
washer reservoir at least monthly
during normal use.
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.
Fill
the reservoir with a good-quality
windshield washer fluid. This
increases the cleaning capability and
prevents freezing in cold weather.
Check
the reservoir’s fluid level by
removing the cap and looking at the
level gauge attached to the cap.
The low washer
level indicator comes on when the
level is low (see page ). 63

Do not use engine antif reeze or a

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.
