To
Use
the Engine Coolant Heater
1.
Turn
off
the engine.
2.
Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord. The
cord is located near the air cleaner assembly.
3.
Plug it into a normal, grounded 110-volt
AC
outlet.
IN:

Plugging the cord into an ungrounded outlet
could cause an electrical shock. Also, the wrong
kind
of
extension cord could overheat and cause
a fire. You could be seriously injured. Plug the
cord into
a
properly grounded three-prong
110-volt AC outlet.
If
the cord won’t reach, use
a
heavy-duty three-prong extension cord rated for
at least
15
amps.
4.
Before starting the engine, be sure
to
unplug and
store the cord as it was before to keep it away
from moving engine parts.
If
you
don’t,
it could
be damaged.
How long should you keep the coolant heater plugged
in? The answer depends on the outside temperature, the
kind
of
oil you have, and some other things. Instead of
trying to list everything here, we ask that
you
contact
your retailer
in
the area where you’ll be parking your
vehicle.
The
retailer can give you the best advice for that
particular area.
