Vehicle Care

Caution

Failure to follow the specific
coolant fill procedure could cause
the engine to overheat and could
cause system damage. If coolant
is not visible in the surge tank,
contact your dealer.

The coolant surge tank pressure
cap can be removed when the
cooling system, including the surge
tank pressure cap and upper
radiator hose, is no longer hot.

1. Turn the pressure cap slowly

counterclockwise. If a hiss is
heard, wait for that to stop.
A hiss means there is still
some pressure left.

2. Keep turning the pressure cap

slowly and remove it.

3. Fill the coolant surge tank with

the proper mixture to the mark
pointed to on the front of the
coolant surge tank.

4. With the coolant surge tank

pressure cap off, start the
engine and let it run until you
can feel the upper radiator
hose getting hot. Watch out for
the engine cooling fans. By this
time, the coolant level inside
the coolant surge tank may be
lower. If the level is lower, add
more of the proper mixture to
the coolant surge tank until the
level reaches the mark pointed
to on the front of the coolant
surge tank.

5. Replace the pressure cap

tightly.

Caution

If the pressure cap is not tightly
installed, coolant loss and engine
damage may occur. Be sure the
cap is properly and tightly
secured.

Engine Overheating

The vehicle has an engine coolant
temperature gauge on the
instrument cluster and overheat
messages in the Driver Information
Center (DIC) to warn of engine
overheating. See

Engine Coolant

Temperature Gauge

0

126

. The DIC

also displays overheat messages.

The decision may be made not to lift
the hood when the engine coolant
temperature gauge is in the
overheat zone or an engine
overheat DIC message displays, but
instead to get service help right
away. See

Roadside Assistance

Program

0

390

.

If the decision to lift the hood is
made, make sure the vehicle is
parked on a level surface. Then
check to see if the engine cooling
fan is running. If the engine is
overheating, the fan should be
running. If it is not, do not continue
to run the engine, and have the
vehicle serviced.
