7.7 Checking and Adding Engine Coolant
WARNING
Burn hazard
Engine coolant is hot and under pressure at operating temperature. It can
cause severe personal injury.
► Check the engine coolant level only after the engine has been shut
down and is cool.
► Do not add engine coolant directly to the radiator when hot.
► If you must drain the engine coolant while it is still hot, stay clear of the
hot engine coolant to avoid being burned.
► Check the coolant level at the reserve tank and add coolant as needed.
► Wear eye protection when handling the engine coolant.
► Tighten the radiator cap securely after checking the radiator. Steam can
escape during engine operation if the cap is loose.
