Cooling System (cont'd)
If the level is below the MAX mark,
but still visible, add a 50/50 solution
of antifreeze and water to bring it up
to MAX.
If there is no coolant in the reserve
tank, the cooling system should be
checked for leaks and repaired if
necessary. Coolant must then be
added to the radiator.
CAUTION: Radiator coolant will damage paint. Quickly rinse any
spilled coolant from painted surfaces.
Wait until the engine is cool, then turn the radiator cap
counterclockwise until it stops. DO NOT PRESS DOWN WHILE
TURNING THE CAP. After any remaining pressure has been relieved,
remove the cap by pressing down and again turning it
counterclockwise. Add enough coolant to fill the radiator, and
reinstall the cap. Be sure to tighten it securely. Fill the reserve tank
up to the MAX mark with the engine cold.
Maintenance
1. Check the freeze protection level of the coolant with a hydrometer.
2. Keep the front of the radiator free of dirt and debris.
3. Check hoses and hose clamps regularly.
Replacing Coolant
Replace coolant at 36 months or 45,000 miles (72,000 km), whichever
comes first. Thereafter, replace every 2 years or 30,000 miles (48,000
km), whichever comes first.
