Cooling System
Adding Engine Coolant
If the reserve tank is completely
empty, you should also check the
coolant level in the radiator.
1. Make sure the engine and
radiator are cool.
2. Turn the radiator cap counter-
clockwise, without pressing
down on it, until it stops. This
relieves any pressure remaining
in the cooling system.
3. Remove the radiator cap by
pushing down and turning
counterclockwise.
4. The coolant level should be up to
the base of the filler neck. Add
coolant if it is low.
5. Put the radiator cap back on.
Tighten it fully.
6. Pour coolant into the reserve
tank. Fill it to halfway between
the MAX and MIN marks. Put
the cap back on the reserve tank.

RESERVE TANK
Removing the radiator cap
while the engine is hot can
cause the coolant to spray out,
seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and
radiator cool down before
removing the radiator cap.
