Power Electronics And Battery Thermal
Management Systems — Coolant Level Check
The coolant expansion bottles provides a quick visual
method for determining that the coolant level is ad-
equate. With the vehicle off and coolant at ambient
temperature, the level of the coolant (antifreeze) in the
bottles should be between the bottom and top lines
marked “MIN-MAX FILL RANGE”.
As long as the vehicle operating temperature is satis-
factory, the coolant bottles need only be checked once a
month.
When additional coolant (antifreeze) is needed to main-
tain the proper level, it should be added to the coolant
bottles. Do not overfill.
Check the Power Electronics and Battery Thermal Man-
agement Systems coolant (antifreeze) protection every
12 months (before the onset of freezing weather, where
applicable).
