Inspect À uid level in the washer À uid
reservoir; add À uid if necessary.

L


Use plain water if washer À uid is
unavailable.
But use only washer À uid in cold weather
to prevent it from freezing.

Front and rear washer À uid is supplied
from the same reservoir.

Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and hood hinges and locks, should
be lubricated each time the engine oil is
