When the engine is cold, check the
level of the engine coolant in the
reservoir.
•The engine coolant should be at the MAX level as listed on the engine
coolant reservoir.
•Refer toscheduled maintenance informationfor service interval
schedules.
If the engine coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval,
the engine coolant reservoir may become low or empty. If the reservoir is
low or empty, add engine coolant to the reservoir. Refer toAdding

coolant/antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified

and distilled water. Add the mixture to the coolant reservoir,when the
engine is cool,until the appropriate fill level is obtained.

can burn you badly. Also, you can be burned if you spill coolant on hot
engine parts.
