Checking
Coolant
L
The surge tank is located next to the engine block on the
passenger's side of the engine.
The cooling system is under a lot of pressure when it is
hot.
If
the CHECK COOLANT LEVEL message
appears on the Driver Information Center (DIC), you
will need to add coolant.
l'brning the surge tank pressure
cap
when the
engine and radiator are hot can allow steam and
scalding liquids to blow
out
and burn
you
badly.
Never turn
the
surge tank pressure cap
--
even a
little
--
when the engine and radiator are hot.
When your engine is cold, the coolant level should be
at the
FULL
COLD mark, which is
2.5
inches
(6.4
cm)
below the base
of
the fill neck. Use a flashlight as
necessary to
see
into the tank.

If
the CHECK COOLANT LEVEL message comes on,
it means you're low on engine coolant.
