Check the f luid level in the
windshield washer reservoir at least
monthly during normal use.
Check the f luid level by removing
the cap and looking at the level
gauge.The low washer
level indicator comes on when the
level is low (see page ). 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 the blade edges.

vinegar/water solution in the
windshield washer reservoir. Antif reeze
