Radiator Pressure Cap
NOTICE:
Your radiator cap is a 15 psi (105 kPa) pressure-type cap and
must be tightly installed to prevent coolant
loss and possible
engine damage from overheating.
Be sure the arrows on the cap
line
up with the overflow tube on the radiator filler neck.
When you replace
your radiator pressure
cap, an
AP cap is
recommended. See
“Service Replacement
Part and Filter
Recommendations” in
the Index.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Thermostat
Engine coolant temperature is controlled by a thermostat in the engine
coolant system. The thermostat stops the flow
of coolant through the
radiator until the coolant reaches
a preset temperature.
When you replace your thermostat, an
AC@ thermostat is recommended.
Power Steering Fluid
NOTICE:
Always turn the engine off before checking or adding power
steering fluid. The power steering cap is close to the fan and
other moving parts.
P
i
Unscrew the cap and
wipe the dipstick with
a clean rag. Replace
the cap and
completely tighten it.
Then remove the cap
again and look at the
fluid level on the
dipstick.
0 When the engine compartment is hot, the level should be at the “HOT”
mark.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 0 When the engine compartment is cool, the level should be at the
“FULL COLD” mark.
What to Add
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of fluid to use.
See “Recommended Fluids and Lubricants”
in the Index.
NOTICE:
When adding power steering fluid or making a complete fluid
change, always use the proper fluid. Failure to use the proper
fluid can cause leaks and damage hoses and seals.
Windshield Washer Fluid
To Add
Open the cap labeled
“WASHER FLUID
ONLY.” Add washer
fluid until the
bottle is
full.
NOTICE:
0 When using concentrated washer fluid, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions for adding water.
0 Don’t mix water with ready-to-use washer fluid, Water can
cause the solution to freeze and damage your washer fluid
tank and other parts of the washer system.
Also, water
doesn’t clean as well as washer fluid.
0 Fill your washer fluid tank only 3/4 full when it’s very cold.
This allows for expansion, which could damage the tank if it
is
completely full.
Don’t use radiator antifreeze in your windshield washer. It
can damage your washer system and paint,
