Maintenance Washer fluid
Washer fluid
Washer fluid is used when wiping
the windshield of the vehicle with a
windshield wiper. You should check
and refill washer fluid periodically to
make sure that it doesn't run out.
Checking the washer fluid level
The reservoir is translucent so that
you can check the level with a quick
visual inspection.
䳜 Check the fluid level in the washer
fluid reservoir and add fluid if
necessary. Plain water may be
used if washer fluid is not avail
able. However, use washer solvent
with antifreeze characteristics in
cold climates to prevent freezing.
Coolant
䳜 Do not use radiator coolant or
antifreeze in the washer fluid res
ervoir.
䳜 Radiator coolant can severely
obscure visibility when sprayed on
the windshield and may cause
loss of vehicle control or damage
to paint and body trim.
䳜 Windshield Washer fluid agents
contain some amounts of alcohol
and can be flammable under cer
tain circumstances. Do not allow
sparks or flame to contact the
washer fluid or the washer fluid
reservoir. Damage to the vehicle
or occupants could occur.
䳜 Windshield washer fluid is poison
ous to humans and animals. Do
not drink and avoid contacting
windshield washer fluid. Serious
injury or death could occur.
