The bottle holds approximately 3.0 litres; in vehicles with headlight washer,
it is approximately 7.0 litres.

Never mix an unsuitable antifreeze or other similar products with the wind-
screen washer water. A greasy layer may be formed on the windscreen
which will impair visibility.

fluids into the correct reservoirs. Failure to observe this point will result in
