It is located toward the rear of the engine
compartment on the passenger’s side of the
vehicle. See Engine Compartment Overview on
page 324 for more information on location.
The vehicle must be on a level surface. When
your engine is cold, the coolant level should be at
FULL COLD, or a little higher. When your
engine is warm, the level could be above the
FULL COLD level.
Adding Coolant
If you need more coolant, add the proper
DEX-COOL
®
coolant mixture at the coolant
recovery tank.
{CAUTION:
Turning the radiator pressure cap when
the engine and radiator are hot can allow
steam and scalding liquids to blow out
and burn you badly. With the coolant
recovery tank, you will almost never
have to add coolant at the radiator.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Never turn the radiator pressure
cap — even a little — when the engine
and radiator are hot.
Add coolant mixture at the recovery tank, but be
careful not to spill it.
{CAUTION:
You can be burned if you spill coolant on
hot engine parts. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol, and it will burn if the
engine parts are hot enough. Do not spill
coolant on a hot engine.
Occasionally check the coolant level in the
radiator. For information on how to add coolant to
the radiator, see Cooling System on page 342.
