The washer fluid reservoir in your Kia Carnival is designed to be translucent, allowing for a quick and easy visual
inspection of the current fluid level.

-
Regularly check the fluid level in the Kia Carnival washer reservoir and top it off as needed. If specialized
windshield washer solvent is unavailable, plain water can be used as a temporary solution; however, it is
strongly recommended to use a washer solvent with antifreeze properties in cold climates to prevent the lines
from freezing.
WARNING
Important safety information regarding washer fluid:
-
Never add radiator coolant or engine antifreeze to the Kia Carnival washer fluid reservoir.
-
Radiator coolant can severely obscure your visibility if sprayed onto the windshield, potentially leading to a
loss of vehicle control. Furthermore, coolant is caustic and can permanently damage the paint and body trim of
your Kia Carnival.
-
Windshield washer fluids contain alcohol and are flammable. Keep all sparks, cigarettes, and open flames away
from the washer fluid reservoir and when handling the liquid to avoid fire hazards and injury to the occupants.
-
Windshield washer fluid is poisonous. It must not be consumed by humans or animals. Avoid any contact with the
eyes or skin, as it can cause serious injury or death.
