2. Then keep turning the DMCM coolant surge tank

pressure cap slowly, and remove it.

3. Add the pre-mixed DEX-COOL™, available at your

dealer/retailer, to the DMCM coolant surge tank
until the level reaches the FULL COLD mark.

4. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN without starting the

engine. The hybrid cooling pumps will run and
any trapped air will purge to the surge tank.

5. Add the pre-mixed DEX-COOL™, available at your

dealer/retailer, until the coolant level is maintained at
the FULL COLD mark. This should take no longer
than two minutes of hybrid cooling pump operation.

If the level cannot be kept at the FULL COLD
level, your vehicle may need service. See your
dealer/retailer.

6. Then replace the

DMCM coolant surge
tank pressure cap.
Be sure the pressure
cap is hand-tight
and fully seated.

Notice: Using tap water, cooling system sealers or
conditioners in an attempt to stop coolant leaks
can damage the DMCM and engine cooling systems.
Never use tap water, cooling system sealers or
conditioners in your cooling system.
