Windshield washer fluid
If you spray washer fluid on the windshield
but the windshield washer fluid warning
light comes on or the supply of washer flu-
id drops, check the level of washer fluid in
the tank.
Washer fluid level gauge
Remove the washer tank filler cap, then
check the fluid level indicated by the level
gauge (attached to the inside of the cap).
If the level is near the “Low” mark, add flu- id until it reaches the “Hi” level on the level
gauge.
After adding fluid, make sure the wind-
shield washer fluid warning light has gone out.
Use windshield washer fluid. If windshield
washer fluid is unavailable use clean wa-
ter.
In areas where water freezes in winter,
use an anti-freeze type windshield washer
fluid. SUBARU Windshield Washer Fluid
contains 58.5% methyl alcohol and 41.5%
surfactant, by volume. Its freezing temper-
ature varies according to how much it is di-
luted, as indicated in the following table.
In order to prevent freezing of washer flu-
id, check the freezing temperatures in the
table above when adjusting the fluid con-
Never use engine coolant as washer
fluid because it could cause paint
