Service and Maintenance
. . . 230
The cooling system in your vehicle
is designed to use DEX-COOL
coolant.
Mixed correctly, your vehicle’s
coolant protects against corrosion
and freezing.
When the engine is cool, the
coolant level should be between
the MIN and MAX marks on the
coolant reservoir. The level of
coolant rises as the engine warms
and drops back as the engine
cools.
CAUTION
Adding only plain water or a
liquid other than the recom-
mended coolant can be
dangerous. The engine could
overheat but you would not get
the overheat warning. The
engine could catch on fire and
you or others could be burned.
Do not use plain water, alcohol
or a methanol based antifreeze
in the cooling system.
Use only the proper mixture of
demineralized water and the
specified antifreeze.

Section 4
NOTICE
Do not substitute any liquids for
the proper coolant mixture.
Otherwise, premature corro-
sion may result and the engine
coolant will require change
sooner.
If the coolant level is low, add a
56/44 mixture of demineralized
water and the specified antifreeze
to bring the level up to the proper
mark.
In extremely cold weather, add a
mixture of 48 percent water and
52 percent antifreeze.
CAUTION
Never open the cap when the
engine and cooling system are
hot. Scalding fluid and steam
can escape and burn you.
CAUTION
Engine coolant can be
hazardous. If ingested, it can
cause illness and death. Keep
out of reach of children. Avoid
repeated or prolonged contact
with skin. Wash hands after
handling.
It is not necessary to add
coolant more frequently than
recommended. If you add coolant
more often, this may be a sign that
your engine needs maintenance.
See your dealer for service.
See the Maintenance Schedule to
find out when the coolant must be
replaced.
