Washer Fluid

What to Use

When windshield washer fluid is
needed, be sure to read the
manufacturer's instructions before
use. If operating the 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

When using concentrated

manufacturer instructions for
adding water.

expansion if freezing occurs,
which could damage the tank
if it is completely full.

Brakes

This vehicle has disc brakes. Disc
brake pads have built-in wear
indicators that make a high-pitched
warning sound when the brake pads
are worn and new pads are needed.
The sound can come and go or be
