How to spray windshield washer fluid in Model Y?

First, lift the lever upward. The front windshield washer will spray fluid while the wipers operate. The washer will stop spraying. Meanwhile, the wipers will swipe several times before resetting.
Using the windshield washer fluid in a Tesla Model Y is incredibly simple. Since it often rains when I drive out, the operation is very convenient. Just sit in the driver's seat, locate the stalk on the right side of the steering wheel (the one for the turn signals), and gently pull it downward—the washer fluid will spray automatically, and the wipers will swipe a few times to clean the windshield. The steps are intuitive: sit steady, hold the wheel, find the stalk, and press it down without too much force—just a crisp click will do. The Model Y's washer fluid reservoir is located under the hood near the windshield. When refilling, just open the hood and look for the blue cap. I usually use generic washer fluid from the supermarket, opting for the antifreeze type in winter to prevent freezing. Remember not to spray excessively at high speeds, as it can distract you—safety first. One spray is just enough without wasting fluid. If the nozzle clogs occasionally, try clearing it with a needle.
