Windshield Washer Fluid

What to Use

When you need windshield washer fluid, be sure to read the manufacturer’s instructions before use. If you will be operating your vehicle in an area where the temperature may fall below freezing, use a fluid that has sufficient protection against freezing.

Adding Washer Fluid

If your vehicle has the low windshield washer fluid level warning light, it will come on when the fluid level is too low. See Low Washer Fluid Warning Light on page 3-40.

Open the cap with the washer symbol on it. Add washer fluid until the tank is full. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 5-12for reservoir location.

Notice:

•When using concentrated washer fluid, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for adding water.

•Do not mix water with ready-to-use washer fluid. Water can cause the solution to freeze and damage your washer fluid tank and other parts of the washer system. Also, water does not clean as well as washer fluid.

•Fill your washer fluid tank only three-quarters full when it is very cold. This allows for expansion if freezing occurs, which could damage the tank if it is completely full.

•Do not use engine coolant (antifreeze) in your windshield washer. It can damage your washer system and paint.
