Filling the Washer Fluid on a Volvo V50

Model: Volvo V50 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012

Lift the car by positioning the jack under the left side of the vehicle. Through the video, you can identify the washer fluid reservoir, accessible from underneath the car: disconnect the flexible hose from the nozzle, freeing it, and move the hose to allow for filling new washer fluid. Although the nominal value states that the washer fluid reservoir holds five litres of liquid, the warning appears when there is still fluid in the reservoir, so instead of five litres, it will hold just over three. Continue to fill the washer fluid until you see it coming out from the rear of the car, then close everything up.
