avoid damaging the blade. Keep the blade rubber out of
contact with petroleum products such as engine oil,

Adding Washer Fluid
The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers and the
rear window washer is shared. The fluid reservoir is
located in the engine compartment, be sure to check the
fluid level at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with
windshield washer solvent only (not engine coolant
(antifreeze). When refilling the washer fluid reservoir,
take some washer fluid and apply it to a cloth or towel
and wipe clean the wiper blades, this will help blade
performance. To prevent freeze-up of your windshield
washer system in cold weather, select a solution or
mixture that meets or exceeds the temperature range of
your climate. This rating information can be found on
most washer fluid containers.The washer fluid reservoir will hold a full gallon of fluid
when the Low Washer Fluid Light illuminates.
WARNING!
Commercially available windshield washer solvents
are flammable. They could ignite and burn you. Care
must be exercised when filling or working around
the washer solution.
Exhaust System
The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust
system.
