VEHICLE CARE

Cooling System
(Intercooler)

Intercooler ATS-V Only

The 3.6L V6 twin turbo engine (LF4)
has an intercooler cooling system.

The intercooler cooling system has a
special procedure for draining and
adding coolant. Because this
procedure is difficult, see the dealer
for service if the intercooler is low on
coolant or a leak is suspected.

Engine Overheating

The vehicle has several indicators to
warn of the engine overheating.

There is an engine coolant
temperature gauge and an engine
coolant temperature warning light on
the instrument cluster.
See

The vehicle may

also display a message on the Driver
Information Center (DIC).

If the decision is made not to lift the
hood when this warning appears, get
service help right away. See

.

If the decision is made to lift the
hood, make sure the vehicle is parked
on a level surface.

Then check to see if the engine
cooling fan is running. If the engine is
overheating, the fan should be
running. If it is not, do not continue
to run the engine. Have the vehicle
serviced.

Caution

Do not run the engine if there is a
leak in the engine cooling system.
This can cause a loss of all coolant
and can damage the system and
vehicle. Have any leaks fixed
right away.

If Steam Is Coming from the
Engine Compartment

{

Warning

Steam and scalding liquids from a
hot cooling system are under
pressure. Turning the pressure cap,
even a little, can cause them to
come out at high speed and you
could be burned. Never turn the cap
when the cooling system, including
the pressure cap, is hot. Wait for
the cooling system and pressure
cap to cool.

If Steam Is Coming from the
Engine Compartment with No
Overheat Warning
(V-Series Only)

The V-Series hood vent is functional,
and will allow water from rain and car
washes to enter the engine
compartment and contact hot
surfaces. If steam is seen coming from
the hood vent with no accompanying
overheat warning, no action is
required.
