Steam and scalding liquids from a hot cooling system can blow
out and burn you badly. They are under pressure, and if you
turn the radiator pressure cap
-- even a little -- they can come
out at high speed. Never turn the cap when the cooling system,
including the radiator pressure cap, is hot. Wait for the cooling
system and radiator pressure cap to cool if you ever have to turn
the pressure cap.

hose getting hot.
Watch out for the
engine fans.

To Check Coolant:
When your engine is
cold, the coolant level
should be at “ADD,”
or a little higher.
When your engine is
warm, the
level should
be up to
“FULL,” or a
little higher.
To Add Coolant: If you need more coolant, add the proper mix at the
coolant recoverv tank. -.
Turning the radiator pressure cap when the engine and radiator
are hot can allow steam and scalding liquids to blow out and
burn you badly. With the coolant recovery tank, you will almost
never have to add coolant at the radiator. Never turn the
radiator pressure cap
-- even a little -- when the engine and
radiator are hot.
I
~
Add coolant mix at the recovery tank, but be careful not to spill it.
I A 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 enough. Don’t spill coolant on a hot engine.
