Adding Coolant
If you need more coolant, add the proper DEX-COOL
®
coolant mixture at the surge tank, but only when the
engine is cool. If the surge tank is empty, see Engine
Overheating on page 5-28 for the proper fill procedure.
{
CAUTION:
You can be burned if you spill coolant on hot
engine parts. Coolant contains ethylene glycol,
and it will burn if the engine parts are hot
enough. Do not spill coolant on a hot engine.
When replacing the pressure cap, make sure it is
hand-tight.
Coolant Surge Tank Pressure Cap
The surge tank pressure
cap must be tightly
installed.
Notice: 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
You will find a coolant temperature gage on the
instrument cluster. In addition, the Driver Information
Center (DIC) has the following warnings that may
appear: LOW COOLANT LEVEL and ENGINE
OVERHEATED. See your owner’s manual for more
information.
