Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The coolant  level should be at  or above “FULL COLD.” If it isn’t,  you 
may  have  a  leak  in the  radiator  hoses, heater  hoses, radiator,  water  pump 
or  somewhere  else 
in the cooling system. 
A CAUTION: 
Heater  and  radiator  hoses, and  other  engine parts,  can  be  very 
hot.  Don’t  touch  them. 
If you do,  you  can be burned. 
Don’t  run the engine  if there 
is a leak. If you run  the engine,  it 
could lose  all coolant.  That could  cause  an engine  fire, and you 
could be  burned.  Get  any  leak  fixed  before  you drive the vehicle.

1. . 
If there  seems  to  be no leak, check  to  see if the  fan or if equipped  electric -- 
engine fans are running.  If the  engine is overheating,  both  fans should  be 
running. 
If they  aren’t, your vehicle  needs service.
