Replenishing Windshield
Washer Fluid
WARNING
Use only windshield washer fluid or
plain water in the reservoir.
Using radiator antifreeze as washer
fluid is dangerous. If sprayed on the
windshield, it will dirty the windshield,
affect your visibility, and could result in
an accident.
Using Washer Fluid Without
Anti-freeze Protection in Cold
Weather:
Operating your vehicle in temperatures
below 4 ℃ (40 ℉) using washer fluid
without anti-freeze protection is
dangerous as it could cause impaired
windshield vision and result in an
accident. In cold weather, always use
washer fluid with anti-freeze
protection.
CAUTION
Do not use soapy water or engine
antifreeze in the reservoir as it could
cause paint discoloration or pump
damage.
NOTE
State or local regulations may restrict
the use of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs), which are commonly used as
anti-freeze agents in washer
fluid.
A
washer fluid with limited VOC content
should be used only if it provides
adequate freeze resistance for all
regions and climates in which the
vehicle will be operated.
Add washer fluid under any of the
following conditions.
The top of the fluid level is low.
The Low Washer Fluid Level Warning
Indication/Warning Light (if
equipped) turns on.
The top of the fluid level is lower
than L (if equipped).
Use plain water if washer fluid is
unavailable.
But use only washer fluid in cold
weather to prevent it from freezing.
