21. In temperate regions, clean water can be used as a glass washer, but the tank should not be more than 2/3 full to compensate for the expansion of water when it freezes during frosts. When operating the vehicle in harsh environments, use only proprietary windshield wipers that provide an adequate drop in the fluid's freezing point. To avoid freezing of the glass when washing in cold weather, preheat it by blowing air passed through the heater heat exchanger.
Attention: The rules for using the liquid are usually printed on the container label (see also Specifications for this Chapter). In no case do not use antifreeze used in the cooling system to add glass washer fluid - the latter is aggressive towards the paintwork of body panels!
