CAUTION:
An electric engine cooling fan under the hood can
start up even when the engine is not running and
can injure you. Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from any underhood electric fan.
If the coolant inside the coolant recovery tank is boiling,
don't do anything else until it cools down.
3800 V6 Engine
3.5L V6 Engine
The coolant level should be at or above the COLD mark
on the overflow hose in the coolant recovery reservoir
for the 3800 engine. To check the coolant level, remove
the cap on the coolant recovery tank. Make sure to
check that the coolant level is up to the COLD fill level
on the hose attached to the cap. For the 3.5L engine the
coolant level should be at or above the FULL COLD
mark on the coolant surge tank. If it isn't, you may have
a leak in the radiator hoses, heater hoses, radiator, water
pump or somewhere else in the cooling system.

NOTICE:
When using concentrated washer fluid,
follow the manufacturer's instructions for
adding water.
Don't mix water with ready
-to-use washer
fluid. Water can cause the solution to freeze
and damage your washer fluid tank and
other parts of the washer system. Also,
water doesn't clean as well as washer fluid.
Fill your washer fluid tank only
three
-quarters full when it's very cold. This
allows for expansion if freezing occurs,
which could damage the tank if it is
completely full.
Don't use engine coolant (antifreeze) in
your windshield washer. It can damage
your washer system and paint.
