Checking Coolant
The engine coolant
recovery tank is in the
engine compartment
on the passenger’s
side of the vehicle.
The cap has this symbol
on it. See Engine
Compartment Overview
on page 330 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.
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. 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.
