To keep the fluid from boiling! :-)
The tank is heated by engine coolant. This keeps it from freezing
in the winter, and also applies hot cleaner to the windshield, which
cleans better.

Not to mention the 126 chassis has a heating pad that coolant is circulated
through at the base of the windshield.
