If the engine coolant reservoir has
become completely empty, have the
engine cooling system inspected
and refilled by a qualified service
technician.
Automotive fluidsare not
interchangeable; do not use engine
coolant, antifreeze or windshield
washer fluid outside of its specified
function and vehicle location.
Adding engine coolant
Do not put engine coolant
in the container for the
windshield washer fluid.
Do not mix conventional green
coolant, orange coolant or
recycled coolants together in
your vehicle. Use only the type
of coolant that your vehicle was
originally equipped with. If you
are unsure which type of
coolant your vehicle requires,
contact your local dealer.
If sprayed on the windshield,
engine coolant could make it
difficult to see through the
windshield.
When the engine iscool, add a
50/50 mixture of engine coolant
and water to the engine coolant
reservoir. Add straight water only
in an emergency, but you should
replace it with a 50/50 mixture of
coolant and distilled water as soon
as possible.
