Check the f luid level in the
windshield washer reservoir at least
monthly during normal use.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 by removing
the cap and looking at the level
gauge.
The washer level indicator will come
on when the level is low (see page
).
If the washer f luid is low, a ‘‘LOW
WASHER FLUID’’ message appears
on the multi-information display. 80

the windshield washer pump. Use only
commercially-available windshield
washer f luid.
