Coolant Level Check
WARNING:
To help avoid danger of being burned:
Scalding fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure if either cap is taken off too soon.
- Do not remove reservoir cap while coolant is "boiling".
- Do not remove radiator cap while engine and radiator are still hot.
Scalding fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure if either cap is taken off too soon.
To check level, lift hood and look at "see-through" coolant reservoir (1).
It is not necessary to remove radiator cap to check coolant level.
When engine is cool, check coolant level in reservoir.
A normal coolant level should be between "FULL" (2) and "LOW" (3) marks on reservoir.
If coolant level is below "LOW" mark, remove reservoir cap and add proper coolant to reservoir to bring coolant level up to "FULL" mark.
Then, reinstall cap.
NOTE:
- If recommended quality antifreeze is used, there is no need to add extra inhibitors or additives that claim to improve system.
They may be harmful to proper operation of system.
- When installing reservoir cap, align arrow marks (4) on reservoir and cap.
