Check the level in the windshield
washer reservoir at least monthly
during normal use.
The windshield washer reservoir is
located in the front compartment in
front of the radiator.
Check the windshield washer fluid
level as follows:
Unfasten the reservoir cap.
Cover the small hole in the center
of the cap with your finger and
pull up until the tube is fully
exposed.
Read the fluid level in the tube. If
the fluid level is near the ‘‘E’’ mark,
fill the reservoir with windshield
washer fluid up to the brim.
Fill the reservoir with a good-quality
windshield washer fluid. This
increases the cleaning capability and
prevents freezing in cold weather.
When you refill the reservoir, clean
the edges of the windshield wiper
blades with windshield washer fluid
on a clean cloth. This will help to
condition them.
