If
the message LOW ENGINE COOLANT is displayed
on your message center,
it
means you’re low on
engine coolant.
Adding Coolant
If
you need more coolant, add the proper DEX-COOL’
coolant mixture
at
the
surge
tank,
but only when the
engine is cool.
I
A
CAUTION:
I
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. Don’t spill coolant on
a
hot engine.
When replacing the pressure cap, make sure it is tight.
Thermostat
Engine coolant temperature is controlled by a thermostat
in the engine coolant system. The thermostat stops the
flow
of
coolant through the radiator until the coolant
reaches a preset temperature.
When you replace your thermostat, an AC@ thermostat
is
recommended.
