How to Top Up the Screenwash Fluid on a Smart?

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Windshield wipers

To top up the screenwash fluid on a Smart, completely remove one of the two grilles located just below the windscreen. The grille to remove is on the passenger side. Once this grille is removed, unscrew the cap underneath to allow access to the screenwash reservoir. After topping up the fluid, replace the cap, reposition the grille, and check that everything is functioning correctly.
