Power Steering Fluid
When to Check Power
Steering Fluid
It is not necessary to check the
power steering fluid level. A power
steering fluid leak is the only
reason for fluid loss. If a leak
occurs, take your vehicle to the
dealer/retailer service department
and have it repaired as soon
as possible.
Windshield Washer Fluid
What to Use
When you need windshield
washer fluid, be sure to read the
manufacturer’s instructions before
use. If you will be operating
your vehicle in an area where
the temperature may fall below
freezing, use a fluid that has
sufficient protection against freezing.
Adding Washer Fluid
Open the cap with the washer
symbol on it. Add washer fluid
until the tank is full. See Engine
Compartment Overview on page 9-6
for reservoir location.
Notice:
• When using concentrated
washer fluid, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions
for adding water.
• Do not mix water with
ready-to-use washer fluid.
Water can cause the solution
to freeze and damage your
washer fluid tank and other
parts of the washer system.
Also, water does not clean as
well as washer fluid.
• Fill the washer fluid tank only
three-quarters full when it is
very cold. This allows for fluid
expansion if freezing occurs,
which could damage the tank
if it is completely full.
• Do not use engine coolant
(antifreeze) in your windshield
washer. It can damage the
vehicle’s windshield washer
system and paint.
