Washer Fluid
Checking the washer fluid level
2C_WasherFluid
Check the fluid level in the washer fluid reservoir and add fluid if necessary. Plain water
may be used if washer fluid is not available. However, use washer solvent with antifreeze
characteristics in cold climates to prevent freezing.
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death, take the following safety precautions when using
washer fluid:
• Do not use engine coolant or antifreeze in the washer fluid reservoir. Engine coolant
can severely obscure visibility when sprayed on the windshield and may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an accident or damage to paint and body trim.
• Do not allow sparks or flame to contact the washer fluid or the washer fluid reservoir.
Washer fluid may contain alcohol and can be flammable.
• Do not drink washer fluid and avoid contact with skin. Washer fluid is harmful to
humans and animals.
• Keep washer fluid away from children and animals.
