Check the washer fluid reservoir

Der Behälter ist durchsichtig, so dass Sie den Füllstand mit einer schnellen Sichtprüfung prüfen können.

Check the washer fluid level in the reservoir and fill with washer fluid as needed. If washer fluid is not available, clean water can be used. However, for winter operation, it is recommended to use washer fluid with antifreeze properties so that the washer fluid does not freeze.
