Method for adding windshield washer fluid to Geely Emgrand: Open the driver's side door of the Geely Emgrand, pull the safety latch of the hood, then press the hidden switch under the hood and slowly lift the hood upwards. Use the support rod to secure the hood. Locate the windshield washer fluid filler port, usually on the left side with a small blue cap. Open the cap and pour in the prepared windshield washer fluid, then securely close the cap. Below is an introduction to the functions of windshield washer fluid: 1. Cleaning performance: Windshield washer fluid is formulated with various surfactants and additives. Surfactants typically have functions such as wetting, penetrating, and solubilizing, thereby achieving cleaning and stain removal. 2. Antifreeze performance: The presence of alcohol and ethylene glycol significantly lowers the freezing point of the liquid, providing antifreeze properties and quickly dissolving frost. 3. Anti-fog performance: A single-molecule protective layer forms on the glass surface. This protective film prevents the formation of fog droplets, ensuring clear visibility through the windshield. 4. Anti-static performance: After cleaning with windshield washer fluid, substances adsorbed on the glass surface can eliminate static charges on the glass, providing anti-static properties. 5. Lubrication performance: The ethylene glycol in the washer fluid has high viscosity, providing lubrication to reduce friction between the wipers and the glass, preventing scratches.
Adding windshield washer fluid to the Emgrand is actually quite simple, and I usually do it myself. First, open the hood and locate the blue-capped container with a windshield symbol in the lower left corner of the engine compartment—that's the washer fluid reservoir. Unscrew the cap, slowly pour in the washer fluid purchased from the supermarket, and remember not to overfill it; leave some space to prevent liquid expansion. I typically use all-season antifreeze washer fluid, which prevents freezing in winter. After filling, tighten the cap and close the hood—that's it. I make it a habit to check the washer fluid level every time I wash the car and top it up as needed to ensure I never run out unexpectedly, which could affect driving safety. If the spray seems weak, the nozzle might be clogged and may need to be cleared with a pin.
