2. Open the Reservoir Cap: Remove the cap from the reservoir. Some caps may have a built-in dipstick to check the fluid level.
3. Add Washer Fluid: Pour windshield washer fluid into the reservoir until it reaches the fill line. Be sure to use a washer fluid that meets Ford specifications and provides antifreeze protection if operating the vehicle in temperatures below 40°F (5°C).
4. Replace the Cap: Securely replace the cap on the reservoir to prevent leaks and contamination.
It’s important to use the correct type of washer fluid to avoid issues such as squeaking, chatter noise, streaking, and smearing on the windshield. Additionally, using washer fluids containing non-methanol antifreeze agents should only be done if they provide cold weather protection without damaging the vehicle’s paint finish, wiper blades, or washer system.
Remember to check the fluid level regularly and refill the reservoir as needed to ensure clear visibility while driving.
If you encounter any issues with the washer fluid system, such as clogs or malfunctions, it’s advisable to consult a qualified technician for assistance.
