the “ON” position, the driving range may
not indicate the correct value.

the windshield with washer fluid
before operating the wipers.
 Clear ice or packed snow from the
wiper blades before using the wip-
ers.
 Check the washer fluid level regu-
larly. Check it often when the
weather is bad.
 Only fill the washer fluid reservoir

room for expansion if the tempera-
ture falls low enough to freeze the
solution.
