Cooling System (Engine)
1. Engine Coolant Surge Tank and
Pressure Cap
2. Engine Cooling Fans (Out
of View)
{
Warning
The electric fans under the
bonnet can start up even when
the engine is not running and can
cause injury. Keep hands,
clothing, and tools away from any
under bonnet electric fan.
If the coolant inside the coolant
surge tank is boiling, do not do
anything else until it cools down.
The vehicle should be parked on a
level surface.
The coolant level should be up to
the cold fill line. If it is not, there
might be a leak at the radiator
hoses, heater hoses, radiator, water
pump, or somewhere else in the
cooling system.
{
Warning
Heater and radiator hoses, and
other engine parts, can be very
hot. Do not touch them. If you do,
you can be burnt.
Do not run the vehicle if there is a
leak. If you run the engine, it
could lose all coolant. That could
cause an engine fire, and you
could be burnt. Get any leak fixed
before you drive the vehicle.
If there seems to be no leak, with
the engine on, check to see if the
engine cooling fans are running.
If the engine is overheating, the fans
should be running. If they are not,
the vehicle needs service. Turn off
the vehicle, and contact a dealer.
Engine Coolant
The engine cooling system in the
vehicle is filled with DEX-COOL
engine coolant. This coolant needs
to be replaced at the appropriate
interval. Refer to the Service/
Warranty Booklet.
The following explains the cooling
system and how to check and add
coolant when it is low. If there is a
problem with engine overheating,
