your engine coolant
has overheated.
Low Coolant Warning Light
LOW
COOLANT
If the coolant level in the
radiator is low, this light
will come on and stay on
until you add coolant.
Continuing
to drive your
vehicle with this warning
light on may result in
damage to your engine.
If you have been operating your vehicle under normal
driving conditions, you should pull
off the road, stop
your vehicle and turn the engine
off as soon as possible.
In “Problems on the Road,” this manual shows you what
to do.
See “Engine Overheating” in the Index. See
“Engine Coolant” in the Index and have your
vehicle serviced as
soon as you can.

COLD mark. 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.

_,J’ =
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.
I NOTICE: I
Engine damage from running your engine
without coolant isn’t covered by your warranty.
If there seems to be no leak, with the engine on, check to
see if the electric engine fan(s) are running. If the engine
is overheating, both fan(s) should be running.
If they
aren’t, your vehicle needs service.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine How to Add Coolant to the Coolant Surge
Tank
If you haven’t found a problem yet, but the coolant level
isn’t at the
FULL COLD mark, add a 50/50 mixture of
clean water (preferably distilled) and DEX-COOL TM
antifreeze at the coolant surge tank, but be sure the
cooling system, including the coolant surge tank
pressure cap, is cool before you do it. (See “Engine
Coolant”
in the Index for more information.)
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 coolant surge
tank pressure cap -- even a little -- they can come
out
at high speed. Never turn the cap when the
cooling system, including the coolant surge
tank
pressure cap, is hot. Wait for the cooling system
and coolant surge
tank pressure cap to cool if you
ever have to
turn the pressure cap.

the engine and
let it run until you can feel the upper
radiator hose getting hot. Watch out for the
engine fans. By
this time, the coolant level inside the coolant surge
tank may be lower.
If the level is lower, add more of the
proper
mix to the coolant surge tank until the level
reaches the
FULL COLD mark.
5. Then replace the
pressure cap. Be
sure the pressure
cap is tight.
