Checking the washer fluid
level
The reservoir is translucent so that
you can check the level with a quick
visual inspection.
Check the fluid level in the washer
fluid reservoir and add fluid if neces-
sary. Plain water may be used if
washer
fluid
is
not
available.
However, use washer solvent with
antifreeze characteristics in cold cli-
mates to prevent freezing.
