Checking the coolant level
:$51,1*
Remove the radiator cap only after the engine has
cooled to room temperature. Place a cloth over the
cap, and loosen the cap about a half-turn or stand the
lever to the upright position to release internal pres-
sure. Opening the radiator cap while the engine is hot
causes steam and hot coolant to spray out and may
result in skin burns.

Open the radiator cap and check the coolant level.
2.
If the coolant level is low, add coolant to the speci-
fied level.

Always use the coolant with the same LLC concentra-
tion.
Note:
Determine the quantities of LLC based on the
coolant capacity and the LLC concentration
chart.

the coolant capacity, refer to
"MAIN SPECIFI-
CATIONS" (12-1)
