my ford has a little windscreen wiper icon on it, not sure if it's the same for a galaxy

screen wash says screen wash on the bottle. anti freeze goes in the water/coolant iirc

the car will start without screenwash, its used to clean your windscreen when it gets dirty

you need screenwash tho not just antifreeze on it's own

when you open the bonnet and look at the engine there should be a plastic cap with a picture of water spraying out, which is where the screen wash goes

remove the cap pour the screenwash in and replace cap
