To activate the windshield washer function, you typically need to operate the wiper control lever on the right side of the steering wheel. The specific method varies by vehicle model: in most cases, you need to pull the control lever toward the driver or push it forward/backward, while some models require pressing a dedicated button at the end of the lever. If no washer fluid sprays out after operation, immediately stop attempting as this usually indicates an empty reservoir that requires prompt refilling with specialized windshield washer fluid (priced approximately RM8-RM25 per bottle). To refill, open the engine compartment, locate the blue cap marked with a windshield symbol, and fill to the MAX line. Important: always use professional washer fluid containing antifreeze and lubricating agents - tap water may clog nozzles and freeze in winter. For clogged nozzles, use a fine needle to clear them. The rear window washer is typically activated by a rotary switch requiring 2-3 seconds of continuous operation. Recommended maintenance includes checking fluid levels every 5,000 km, with particular attention before rainy seasons or long trips.
