Maintenance and do-it-yourself

Add a washer solvent to the washer for better
cleaning. In the winter season, add a windshield
washer antifreeze. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for the mixture ratio.

Refill the reservoir more frequently when driving
conditions require an increased amount of
window washer fluid.

NOTICE

. Do not substitute engine anti-freeze

coolant for window washer solution.
This may result in damage to the
paint.

. Do not fill the window washer

reservoir tank with washer fluid
concentrates at full strength. Some
methyl alcohol based washer fluid
concentrates may permanently stain
the grille if spilled while filling the
window washer reservoir tank.

NOTE:

Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with
water to the manufacturer’s recommended
levels before pouring the fluid into the
window washer reservoir. Do not use the
window washer reservoir to mix the

washer fluid concentrate and water.

. Keep the battery surface clean and dry.

Clean the battery with a solution of baking
soda and water.

. Make certain the terminal connections are

clean and securely tightened.

. If the vehicle is not to be used for 30 days or

longer, disconnect the negative (

−) battery

terminal cable to prevent discharging it.
