Look for any obvious coolant leaks,

such as a split radiator hose.

Everything is still extremely hot,

so use caution. If you find a leak, it

must be repaired before you

continue driving (see

on page ).

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.

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 reading

reaches the middle of the

temperature gauge or lower

before checking the radiator.

Start the engine, and set the

temperature to maximum heat

(climate control to AUTO at

‘‘ ’’). 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.

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 watch

the temperature gauge. If it goes

back to the H mark, the engine

needs repair (see

on page ).

If you do not find an obvious leak,

check the coolant level in the

radiator reserve tank. Add coolant

if the level is below the MIN mark.

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.
