Subaru Forester: Windshield washer fluid / Adding the windshield washer fluid
CAUTION
Never use engine coolant as washer
fluid because it could cause paint
damage.

Remove the washer tank filler cap, then
add windshield washer fluid.
Use windshield washer fluid. If windshield
washer fluid is unavailable, use clean
water.
In areas where water freezes in winter, use
an anti-freeze type windshield washer
fluid...
Other information:
Two separate circuits
Your vehicle has two separate circuit brake
systems. Each circuit works diagonally
across the vehicle. If one circuit of the
brake system should fail, the other half of
the system still works. If one circuit fails,
the brake pedal will go down much closer
to the floor than usual and you will need to
press it down much harder...
WARNING
To prevent the passenger from sliding
under the seatbelt in the event of
a collision, observe the following
precautions:
Keep the seatback in the upright
position while the vehicle is in
motion.
Do not place objects such as
cushions between the passenger
and the seatback...
