Adding Washer Fluid

The WASHER FLUID LOW ADD FLUID message will

be displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC)

when the fluid is low. See DIC Warnings and Messages

on page 4‑65

for more information.

Open the cap with the

washer symbol on it.

Add washer fluid until the

tank is full. See Engine

Compartment Overview

on page 6‑14

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 the 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 the

windshield washer. It can damage the

windshield washer system and paint.

Brakes

Brake Fluid

The brake master cylinder

reservoir is filled with

DOT 3 brake fluid. See

Engine Compartment

Overview

on page 6‑14

for reservoir location and

access.

There are only two reasons why the brake fluid level in

the reservoir might go down:

The brake fluid level goes down because of normal

brake lining wear. When new linings are installed,

the fluid level goes back up.

A fluid leak in the brake hydraulic system can also

cause a low fluid level. Have the brake hydraulic

system fixed, since a leak means that sooner or

later the brakes will not work well.
