Coolant level inspection
1. Place the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Inspect the coolant level in the reservoir

, which can be
viewed through the left side inner fender area.
3. If the coolant is at or below the lower limit mark; remove the
access cover and the reservoir cap
2
. Add coolant to the
upper limit mark, install the reservoir cap, and then reinstall the
access cover.
NOTE:
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir when the engine is
cold, as the coolant level will vary with engine temperature.
Coolant system capacity: 3.1 qt. (3.0 L)
Lowest capacity of coolant reservoir: 0.24 qt. (230 mL)
CAUTION
If water is added, have your dealer check the antifreeze content
of the coolant as soon as possible. Never add hard water or salt
water, as it is harmful to the engine. Softened tap water may be
used if distilled water is not available. The radiator fan operation
is automatically switched on or off according to the coolant
temperature in the radiator during operation.
