Windshield Washer Fluid
80JM078
Check that there is washer fluid in the tank.
Refill it if necessary. Use a good quality
windshield washer fluid, diluted with water
as necessary.
Air Conditioning SystemIf you do not use the air conditioning sys-
tem for a long period, such as during win-
ter, it may not give the best performance
when you start using it again. To help
maintain optimum performance and dura-
bility of your air conditioning system, it
needs to be run periodically. Operate the
air conditioning system at least once a
month for one minute with the engine
idling. This circulates the refrigerant and oil
and helps protect the internal components.
WARNING
Do not use “anti-freeze” solution in
the windshield washer reservoir. This
can severely impair visibility when
sprayed on the windshield, and also
damage your vehicle’s paint.
NOTICE
Damage may result if the washer
motor is operated with no fluid in the
washer tank.
