Coolant level check
Check the coolant level at the reservoir
tank, not at the radiator. With the engine
cool, the coolant level should be between
“FULL” and “LOW” marks.
Adding coolant
68PM00704
If the coolant level is below “LOW” mark,
more coolant should be added. Remove
the reservoir tank cap and add coolant until
the reservoir tank level reaches “FULL”
mark. Never fill the reservoir tank above
“FULL” mark.
