On Canadian models:On the Touring model:The low washer
level indicator comes on when the
level is low (see page ).
You will see a
‘‘WASHER FLUID LOW’’ message
on the multi-information display
when the level is low.
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 them.
Check the f luid level in the
windshield washer reservoir at least
monthly during normal use. This
reservoir supplies the windshield and
rear window washers.
Check the f luid level by removing
the cap and looking at the level
