specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAUS1270
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa-
ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
NOTE:
The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.
Make sure that the vehicle is
positioned straight up when
checking the coolant level. A
slight tilt to the side can result in
a false reading.
