The cooling system should be
completely drained and refilled with
new coolant according to the time
and distance recommendations in
the maintenance schedule. Only use

Unless you have the tools and
knowledge, you should have this
maintenance done by a skilled
mechanic.
Turn the ignition ON (II). Turn
the heater temperature control
dial fully clockwise or set the
climate control system to
90°F (32°C). Turn the ignition off.

touch.
