Vehicle Care
2. Cover the radiator cap with a
thick cloth and turn it slowly
counterclockwise and remove.
3. If there is no coolant visible or
the level is low, slowly fill the
system through the radiator cap
opening with a 50/50 mixture of
clean, drinkable water and
DEX-COOL coolant until full.
Wait 30 seconds for the coolant
to settle and top off if the level
drops.
Do not spill coolant on the
accessory drive belts.
If a spill occurs, rinse the belt
with fresh water.
4. Start the engine.
5. With the engine idling, top off the
coolant through the radiator cap
opening until full.
Wait 30 seconds for the coolant
to settle and top off if the level
drops.
6. Once the system is full, put the
radiator cap back on by turning
clockwise.
7. Turn the engine off.
8. Check the coolant level in the
engine coolant recovery
reservoir and fill it until the level
is at the top mark on the dipstick
cap. Filling to this level provides
additional coolant to allow for
any air that may be left in the
cooling system.

Caution
If the pressure cap is not tightly
installed, coolant loss and
possible engine damage may
occur. Be sure the cap is properly
and tightly secured.
Engine Overheating
The vehicle has an indicator to warn
of engine overheating.
You may decide not to lift the hood
when this warning appears, but
instead get service help right away.
See
.
If you do decide to lift the hood,
make sure the vehicle is parked on
a level surface.
Then check to see if the engine
cooling fans are running. If the
engine is overheating, both fans
should be running. If they are not,
do not continue to run the engine
and have the vehicle serviced.
