Inspecting Washer Fluid Level

Inspect fluid level in the washer fluid 
reservoir; add fluid if necessary.

The top of the float should be between 
FULL and LOW.

Use plain water if washer fluid is 
unavailable.
But use only washer fluid in cold weather 
to prevent it from freezing.

•

Use the cold scale only as a 
reference.

•

If outside temperature is lower than 
about 20°C (70°F), start the engine 
and inspect the fluid level after the 
engine reaches operating 
temperature.

•

If the vehicle has been driven for an 
extended period at high speeds or in 
city traffic in hot weather, inspect 
the level only after stopping the 
engine and allowing the fluid to 
cool for 30 minutes.

NOTE

Inspect both sides of the dipstick for 
accurate reading.

CAUTION

Washer Fluid

Substitute Washer Fluid:
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. Use only 
windshield washer fluid or plain 
water in the reservoir.
