To Use The Engine Coolant
Heater

1. Turn off the engine.

2. Open the hood and unwrap the

electrical cord.

The electrical cord is located
on the passenger side of the
engine compartment, in front
of the underhood fuse block
for V6 models.

3. Plug it into a normal, grounded

110-volt AC outlet.

{

WARNING

Plugging the cord into an
ungrounded outlet could cause
an electrical shock. Also, the
wrong kind of extension cord
could overheat and cause a fire.
You could be seriously injured.
Plug the cord into a properly
grounded three-prong 110-volt AC
outlet. If the cord will not reach,
use a heavy-duty three-prong
extension cord rated for at least
15 amps.

4. Before starting the engine, be

sure to unplug and store the cord
as it was before to keep it away
from moving engine parts. If you
do not it could be damaged.

The length of time the heater
should remain plugged in depends
on several factors. Ask a dealer/
retailer in the area where you will
be parking the vehicle for the best
advice on this.
