COOLANT LEVEL
Always check the coolant level when the engine is cold. Maintain the coolant

on the recovery bottle

(when the fluid is
cool).
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Open the hood.
3. View the coolant level in the recovery bottle.
CAUTION
Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap while the
engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the
pressure cap.
4. If the level is low, slowly remove the pressure cap
q
. Use a funnel to add
coolant to the fill level mark.
5. Reinstall the pressure cap.
NOTE
If coolant must be added often, or if the recovery bottle runs completely dry,
there may be a leak in the system. Have the cooling system inspected by your
dealer.
