Notice: In cold weather, water can freeze and crack
the engine, radiator, heater core and other parts.
Use the recommended coolant and the proper
coolant mixture.

{

CAUTION:

You can be burned if you spill coolant on hot
engine parts. Coolant contains ethylene glycol
and it will burn if the engine parts are hot
enough. Do not spill coolant on a hot engine.

1. You can remove the coolant surge tank pressure

cap when the cooling system, including the coolant
surge tank pressure cap and upper radiator hose,
is no longer hot. Turn the pressure cap slowly
counterclockwise (left) until it first stops. Do not
press down while turning the pressure cap.

If you hear a hiss, wait for that to stop. A hiss
means there is still some pressure left.

2. Then keep turning the cap, but now push down as

you turn it. Remove the pressure cap.
