2 Answers
The symbol for adding windshield washer fluid to a car is a sign resembling a windshield spray. Below is relevant information about car symbols: 1. Warning lights: These have alert functions, such as the fuel indicator light, door status indicator light, seat belt indicator light, etc. Generally, warning lights turn off after the driver performs the corresponding action. For example, the seat belt indicator light will turn off once the seat belt is fastened. 2. Malfunction indicator lights: These are also the most important indicator lights, such as the generator malfunction indicator light, ABS malfunction indicator light, transmission malfunction indicator light, etc. 3. Brake disc indicator light: This shows the wear condition of the brake pads. Normally, this light is off. If it lights up, it reminds the owner to promptly replace the faulty or excessively worn brake pads.
When I first got my driver's license, I knew nothing about car construction. The windshield washer fluid filler port is particularly easy to identify—it's a plastic cap marked with an icon of a windshield wiper spraying water or a fan-shaped water wave, usually in blue or white, reminding you to add fluid for cleaning the windshield. Under the hood, it's located near the base of the windshield, with its exact left or right position varying by car model—for example, in my car, it's on the passenger side. Open the cap and pour in the washer fluid, making sure to use only dedicated windshield washer fluid and avoid tap water. In winter, choose an antifreeze type to prevent freezing. The first time I tried to refill it myself, I almost poured it into the brake fluid reservoir. After realizing my mistake, I learned a handy tip: look for the 'washer fluid' symbol on the label inside the hood—that's the right one. It's good practice to check the fluid level monthly and top it up when low, ensuring clear visibility for safe and worry-free driving.
