Check the f luid level in the
windshield washer reservoir at least
monthly during normal use.The low washer
level indicator comes on when the
level is low (see page ). Check the f luid level by removing
the cap and looking at the level
gauge.
Fill the reservoir with a good-quality
windshield washer f luid. This
increases the cleaning capability and
prevents f reezing in cold weather.
When you ref ill the reservoir, clean
the edges of the windshield wiper
blades with windshield washer f luid
on a clean cloth. This will help to
condition them.

can damage your vehicle’s paint, while
a vinegar/water solution can damage
the windshield washer pump. Use only
commercially-available windshield
washer f luid.
