If coolant is needed, add the proper
DEX-COOL coolant mixture at the
coolant recovery tank.

How to Add Coolant to the
Radiator

{

Warning

Steam and scalding liquids from a
hot cooling system can blow out
and burn you badly. Never turn
the cap when the cooling system,
including the surge tank pressure
cap, is hot. Wait for the cooling
system and surge tank pressure
cap to cool.

If coolant is needed, add the proper
mixture directly to the radiator, but
be sure the cooling system is cool
before this is done. Then check the
recovery tank and add coolant if
needed.

1. Detach the fasteners and lift off

the panel that covers the
radiator cap.

2. Remove the radiator pressure

cap when the cooling system,
including the upper radiator
hose, is no longer hot. Turn the
pressure cap slowly
counterclockwise about one
full turn.

If a hiss is heard, wait for that
to stop. A hiss means there is
still some pressure left in the
system.

3. Keep turning the pressure cap

slowly and remove it.

4. Fill the radiator to the base of

the filler neck with the proper
DEX-COOL coolant mixture.

5. Fill the coolant recovery tank to

the FULL COLD ISO
symbol mark.

6. Reinstall the cap on the coolant

recovery tank but leave the
radiator pressure cap off.
