A better way to avoid stuff on your windshield, is to use Aquapel. It will prevent gunk from sticking to your windshield. Also running your pump dry is not good i think the liquid helps to lube & cool the pump just like in a gas tank. You should never run a gas tank empty either, it will cause mass damage. -

You should try not to hit the button when the reservoir is empty, because that can wear out the pump. Try to check the level frequently. If you do press the button, and nothing comes out, make sure you remember to fill it as soon as you can, and don't hit the button again until you do.
