CAUTION
To prevent burning yourself, do not
check the washer fluid level when the
engine is hot.
NOTICE
After checking the washer fluid lev-
el, make sure the dipstick is se-
curely reinserted. If it is loose, fluid
may leak from the reservoir.
Do not check the washer fluid level
or add washer fluid when the en-
gine is running or when it is hot.
If the fluid is spilled over the hot
engine, a fire could result.
If you have added washer fluid until
it is close to the top of the opening
for adding fluid, do not pull out the
dipstick. Otherwise, the fluid will
overflow.
Do not use engine antifreeze or any
other substitute because it may
damage your vehicle’s paint.
