Radiator Coolant Level
Always check and clean the screen and radiator fins at the intervals out-
lined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 60. Do not
obstruct or deflect air flow through the radiator by installing unautho-
rized accessories in front of the radiator or behind the cooling fan. Inter-
ference with the radiator air flow can lead to overheating and
consequentially, engine damage.
1. Lift the hood.
2. Slowly remove the radiator cap.
3. View the coolant level through the open-
ing.
4. Use a funnel and slowly add coolant as
needed.
NOTE:
This procedure is required only if the
cooling system has been drained for
maintenance and/or repair. But if the
overflow bottle has run dry, the level in
the radiator should also be inspected.
NOTE:
Use of a non-standard pressure cap will
not allow the recovery system to function
properly. See your dealer for the correct
replacement part.
WARNING
Escaping steam can cause severe burns. Never remove the pressure cap
while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before
removing the pressure cap.
