To prevent windshield icing in cold
weather, turn on the defroster to
heat the windshield before and dur-
ing windshield washer use.
Do not use radiator antifreeze in the
windshield washer reservoir. It can
severely impair visibility when
sprayed on the windshield, and can
also damage your vehicle’s paint.EXAMPLE

To help prevent damage to the wind-
shield wiper and washer system
components, you should take the fol-
lowing precautions:
Do not continue to hold in the lever
when there is no windshield washer
fluid being sprayed or the washer
motor can be damaged.
Do not attempt to remove dirt from
a dry windshield with the wipers or
you can damage the windshield and
the wiper blades. Always wet the
windshield with washer fluid before
operating the wipers.
Clear ice or packed snow from the
wiper blades before using the wipers.
Check the washer fluid level regu-
larly. Check it often when the
weather is bad.
Only fill the washer fluid reservoir 3/
4 full during cold weather to allow
room for expansion if the temperature
falls low enough to freeze the solution.
To spray windshield washer fluid, pull the
lever toward you. The windshield wipers will
automatically turn on at low speed.
