When the engine is cold, check the
level of the engine coolant in the
reservoir.

• The engine coolant should be at the FULL COLD level or within the

COLD FILL RANGE as listed on the engine coolant reservoir
(depending upon application).

• Refer to scheduled maintenance information for service interval

schedules.

• Be sure to read and understand Precautions when servicing your

vehicle in this chapter.

If the engine coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval,
the engine coolant reservoir may become low or empty. If the reservoir is
low or empty, add engine coolant to the reservoir. Refer to Adding
engine coolant
in this chapter.

Note: Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use engine
coolant, antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified
function and vehicle location.

Adding engine coolant

When adding coolant, make sure it is a 50/50 mixture of engine coolant
and distilled water. Add the mixture to the coolant reservoir, when the
engine is cool,
until the appropriate fill level is obtained.
