10-18 Vehicle Care high warning light remains on,
do not continue to drive, call
your dealer.
The malfunction indicator light (MIL)
may also come ON. If only it
remains on, you do not need to
have the vehicle towed, but have it
inspected soon by your dealer. For
additional information, see
Malfunction Indicator Lamp on
page 5-11 .
Washer Fluid What to Use When the vehicle needs windshield
washer fluid, read the
manufacturer's instructions before
use. If operating the vehicle in an
area where the temperature may fall
below freezing, use a fluid that has
sufficient protection against
freezing. Adding Washer Fluid
Open the cap with the washer
symbol on it. Add washer fluid until
the reservoir is full. See Engine
Compartment Overview on
page 10-7 for reservoir location.{ Caution .
Do not use engine coolant
(antifreeze) in the windshield
washer. It can damage the
windshield washer system
and paint. .
Do not mix water with
ready-to-use washer fluid.
Water can cause the solution
to freeze and damage the
washer fluid tank and other
parts of the washer system. .
When using concentrated
washer fluid, follow the
manufacturer instructions for
adding water. .
Fill the washer fluid tank only
three-quarters full when it is
very cold. This allows for fluid
expansion if freezing occurs,
which could damage the tank
if it is completely full.
