Observe the safety precautions.
The windshield washer reservoir
contains the
cleaning solution for the windshield/rear window
and the headlight washer system
fig. 153.
To reduce the risk of lime scale deposits on the
spray nozzles, use clean water with low amounts
of calcium. Always add window cleaner to the water.
When the outside temperatures are cold, an
anti-freezing agent should be added to the water
so that it does not freeze.

that is too high can lead to vehicle damage.
- Never add radiator anti-freeze or other additives
to the washer fluid.
