Coolant Level Inspection
NOTE: Check the coolant level when the
engine is cold (room or atmospheric
temperature).
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Check the coolant level by looking at
the overflow bottle located in front of
the right front wheel. The coolant
level should be between the minimum

3. If the coolant level is below the safe operating range, lift the hood
and locate the overflow bottle lid. Remove the lid and use a funnel
to add coolant through the filler opening until the fluid level has
reached the maximum mark. Reinstall the cap.
NOTE: If coolant must be added often, or if the overflow bottle runs

NOTE: This procedure is required only

NOTE: Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the
recovery system to function properly. See your dealer for the correct
replacement part.
