The windshield washer fluid reservoir is located next to
the air filter
on the driver’s side of the engine.

the cap labeled WASHER FLUID ONLY. Add
washer fluid until the tank is full.

When using concentrated washer fluid,
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
adding water.
Don’t
mix water with ready-to-use washer
fluid. Water can cause the solution to freeze
and damage your washer fluid tank and
other parts of the washer system.
Also,
water doesn’t clean as well as washer fluid.
Fill your washer fluid tank only
3/4 full
when it’s very cold. This allows for
expansion, which could damage the tank if
it is completely full.
Don’t
use radiator antifreeze in your
windshield washer.
It can damage your
washer system and paint.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination
of fuses and circuit
breakers. This greatly reduces the chance of fires caused
by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace
a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don't have a
spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same
amperage. Pick some feature of your vehicle that you
can get along without
-- like the radio or cigarette
lighter
-- and use its fuse, if it is the correct amperage.
Replace
it as soon as you can.
There
are three fuse blocks in your vehicle: the engine
compartment fuse block, the MaxiFuse relay center and
the rear compartment fuse block.
hgine Compartment Fuse Block
r-
The fuse block is located next to the air filter on the
driver's side
of the engine. Lift the cover to gain access.
