Washer Fluid Level Inspection

Kia Soul. Washer fluid

Check the washer fluid level in the reservoir and add fluid if necessary. If washer fluid is not available, plain water may be used.

However, in cold climates, use washer solution with antifreeze properties to prevent freezing.

WARNING

Engine coolant

  • Do not add engine coolant or antifreeze to the washer fluid reservoir.
  • Engine coolant can severely impair visibility when sprayed onto the windshield and may cause loss of vehicle control or damage to paint and body trim.
  • Windshield washer fluid contains alcohol and may ignite under certain conditions. Keep sparks or flames away from washer fluid or the washer fluid reservoir. Vehicle damage or occupant injury may occur.
  • Windshield washer fluid is poisonous to humans and animals. Do not drink it and avoid contact with windshield washer fluid. Serious injury or death may occur.
