WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer so-
lution may freeze on the rear window

trates may permanently stain the

dow washer reservoir tank.
Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates
with water to the manufacturer’s rec-
ommended levels before pouring the
fluid into the window washer reser-
voir tank. Do not use the window
washer reservoir tank to mix the
washer fluid concentrate and water.
