Adding Washer Fluid
The washer fluid reservoir is located in the engine com-
partment, and the fluid level should be checked at regular
intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer solvent
only (not radiator antifreeze).
When refilling the washer fluid reservoir, take some washer
fluid and apply it to a cloth or towel and wipe clean the
wiper blades, this will help blade performance. To prevent
freeze-up of your windshield washer system in cold
weather, select a solution or mixture that meets or exceeds
the temperature range of your climate. This rating informa-
tion can be found on most washer fluid containers.
WARNING!
Commercially available windshield washer solvents
are flammable. They could ignite and burn you. Care
must be exercised when filling or working around
the washer solution.
Exhaust System
The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust
system.
If you notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system;
or if the exhaust fumes can be detected inside the vehicle;
or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged;
have an authorized technician inspect the complete ex-
haust system and adjacent body areas for broken, dam-
aged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts. Open seams
or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes to seep
into the passenger compartment. In addition, have the
exhaust system inspected each time the vehicle is raised
for lubrication or oil change. Replace as required.
