If you don’t find an obvious leak,

check the coolant level in the

radiator reserve tank. Add coolant

if the level is below the MIN mark

(see on

page ).

If there was no coolant in the

reserve tank, you may need to add

coolant to the radiator. Let the

engine cool down until the pointer

reaches the middle of the

before checking the radiator.

If the temperature stays normal,

check the coolant level in the

radiator reserve tank. If it has

gone down, add coolant to the

MAX mark. Put the cap back

on tightly.

Put the radiator cap back on

tightly. Run the engine, and check

the temperature gauge. If it goes

back to the red mark, the engine

needs repair (see

on page ).

Start the engine, and set the

interior temperature to maximum

heat (each temperature control

sets to ‘‘ ’’). Add coolant to

the radiator up to the base of the

filler neck. If you do not have the

proper coolant mixture available,

you can add plain water.

Remember to have the cooling

system drained and refilled with

the proper mixture

as soon as you can.

Using gloves or a large heavy

cloth, turn the radiator cap

counterclockwise, without

pushing down, to the first stop.

After the pressure releases,

push down on the cap, and turn it

until it comes off.

Removing the radiator cap

while the engine is hot can

cause the coolant to spray out,

seriously scalding you.

Always let the engine and

radiator cool down before

removing the radiator cap.
