WARNING: Brake fluid is highly toxic. Keep containers sealed and out of the reach of children. In the event of accidental consumption, seek medical attention immediately.
CAUTION: Brake fluid damages painted surfaces. Immediately soak up any spills with an absorbent cloth and wash the area with a mixture of car shampoo and water.
Topping Up Windshield Washer Fluid
The only reservoir into which you can add fluid is the windshield washer fluid reservoir,
which is located behind the front trunk. When
the level is low, a message displays on the
instrument panel.
To top up the washer fluid:
1.
Open the hood.
2.
Clean around the filler cap before opening
it to prevent dirt from entering the
reservoir.
3.
Open the filler cap.
4.
While avoiding spilling, fill the reservoir
until the fluid level is visible just below the filler neck.
5.
Wipe up any spills immediately and wash
the affected area with water.
6.
Replace the filler cap.
NOTE: Some national or local regulations
restrict the use of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). VOCs are commonly
used as antifreeze in washer
fluid. Use a
washer fluid with limited VOC content only if
it provides adequate freeze resistance for all
climates in which you drive
Model S.
CAUTION: Do not add formulated washer fluids that contain water repellent or bug wash. These fluids
can cause streaking, smearing, and squeaking or other noises.
WARNING: In temperatures below 40
