Checking and adding washer fluid for the
liftgate (if equipped)

The opening for the
reservoir is located on
the passenger side
under the tail lamp.
Refill this reservoir
with the same fluid you
use for your
windshield.

ENGINE COOLANT

Check the level of the
engine coolant in the
reservoir. Refer to the
Scheduled Maintenance
Guide for service
interval schedules. Be
sure to read and
understand
Precautions when
servicing your vehicle
in this chapter.

If the engine coolant has not been checked at the
recommended interval, the engine coolant reservoir
may become empty. If this occurs, add engine
coolant to the reservoir. For more information on
engine coolant maintenance, refer to Adding engine
coolant
in this chapter.

Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use
engine coolant, antifreeze or windshield washer fluid
outside of its specified function and vehicle location.
