Adding Washer Fluid
Your vehicle has a low
washer telltale that will
come on in the instrument
panel cluster when the
washer fluid is low. See
“Low Washer Light” in the
Index for more information.
The windshield washer
fluid reservoir is located
in the engine compartment
towards the front on the
driver’s side of the vehicle.
See “Engine Compartment
Overview” in the Index
for more information
on location.
Open the cap with the washer symbol on it. Add washer
fluid until the tank is full.

allows for expansion if freezing occurs,
which could damage the tank if it is
