How Often Should Windshield Washer Fluid Be Replaced?
1 Answers
Windshield washer fluid in cars generally does not need to be replaced; simply refill it when it runs out. Below is relevant knowledge about the use of windshield washer fluid: 1. When owners notice the washer fluid level is low or the fluid has run out, they can add it themselves. Refilling windshield washer fluid is very simple: just open the engine hood, locate the cap of the washer fluid reservoir, open the cap, and add the fluid. 2. In winter, it is essential to use washer fluid with a lower freezing point; otherwise, the fluid may freeze due to low temperatures. When liquid freezes, its volume expands, which could potentially damage the washer fluid reservoir. Always refill the washer fluid promptly when it runs out, as it is crucial for keeping the windshield clean. After adding the fluid, make sure to securely close the cap to prevent dirt from entering the reservoir. 3. If the washer fluid is low, avoid using water as a substitute, as water contains impurities that can easily clog the washer nozzles. Typically, filling a car's washer fluid reservoir requires about four liters of fluid. When purchasing washer fluid, buy according to the reservoir's specified capacity. Avoid buying low-quality washer fluid, as using it may accelerate the aging of the windshield wipers.
