Checking the Washer Fluid Level
OJWEV091004 
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:
ś Do not use coolant or antifreeze in 
the washer fluid reservoir. 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.
ś 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.
ś Do not drink washer fluid and avoid 
contact with skin. Washer fluid is 
harmful to humans and animals.
ś Keep washer fluid away from 
children and animals.
