2003 GMC SAVANA coolant temperature

Windshield Washer Fluid
What to Use
When you need windshield washerfluid, be sure to
read the manufacturer’s instructions before use. If you
will be operating your vehicle in an area where the
temperature may fall below freezing, use afluid that
has sufficient protection against freezing.
Adding Washer Fluid
Open the cap with the
washer symbol on it.
Add washerfluid until
the tank is full.Notice:
•When using concentrated washerfluid, follow
the manufacturer’s instructions for adding
water.
•Don’t mix water with ready-to-use washerfluid.
Water can cause the solution to freeze and
damage your washerfluid tank and other parts
of the washer system. Also, water doesn’t
clean as well as washerfluid.
•Fill your washerfluid tank only three-quarters
full when it’s very cold. This allows for
expansion if freezing occurs, which could
damage the tank if it is completely full.
•Don’t use engine coolant (antifreeze) in your
windshield washer. It can damage your
washer system and paint.
