How to Add Coolant to the
Radiator
{CAUTION
An electric engine cooling fan
under the hood can start up even
when the engine is not running
and can cause injury. Keep
hands, clothing, and tools away
from any underhood electric fan.
{CAUTION
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
surge tank pressure cap — even a
little — they can come out at high
speed. Never turn the cap when
the cooling system, including the
surge tank pressure cap, is hot.
(Continued)
CAUTION (Continued)
Wait for the cooling system and
surge tank pressure cap to cool
if you ever have to turn the
pressure cap.
If coolant is needed, add the proper
mixture directly to the radiator,
but be sure the cooling system is
cool before this is done.
1. Detach fasteners and lift off
the panel that covers the
radiator cap.2. Remove the radiator pressure
cap when the cooling system,
including the upper radiator hose,
is no longer hot.
Turn the pressure cap slowly
counterclockwise about one full
turn. If you hear a hiss, wait
for that to stop. A hiss means
there is still some pressure left in
the system.
3. Keep turning the pressure cap
slowly and remove it.
4. Fill the radiator to the base of the
ller neck with the proper
DEX-COOL coolant mixture.
5. When coolant begins to ow out
of the ller neck, reinstall the
pressure cap. Be sure to secure
it tightly.

lines up and is inserted correctly
into the opening of the vehicle.License Plate Lamp

2. Unwrap the sealant/air hose (F)
and the power plug (H).
3. Place the kit on the ground.
Make sure the tire valve
stem is positioned close to the
ground so the hose will reach it.
4. Remove the valve stem cap from
the at tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
5. Attach the sealant/air hose (F)
onto the tire valve stem. Turn
it clockwise until it is tight.
6. Plug the power plug (H) into the
accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items
from other accessory power
outlets. SeeAccessory Power
Outlet(s) on page 3-17.
If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette
lighter, use the cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug
cord in the door or window.7. Start the vehicle. The vehicle
must be running while using
the air compressor.
8. Turn the selector switch (A)
counterclockwise to the
Sealant + Air position.
9. Press the on/off (B) button to
turn the tire sealant and
compressor kit on.
The compressor will inject
sealant and air into the tire.
The pressure gage (C) will initially
show a high pressure while the
compressor pushes the sealant
into the tire. Once the sealant is
completely dispersed into the tire,
the pressure will quickly drop and
start to rise again as the tire
inates with air only.10. Inate the tire to the
recommended ination pressure
using the pressure gage (C).
The recommended ination
pressure can be found on the
Tire and Loading Information
label. SeeInflation - Tire
Pressure on page 5-45.
The pressure gage (C) may
read higher than the actual tire
pressure while the compressor
is on. Turn the compressor
off to get an accurate pressure
reading. The compressor
may be turned on/off until the
correct pressure is reached.

Notice:If the recommended
pressure cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven
farther. The tire is too severely
damaged and the tire sealant and
compressor kit cannot inate the
tire. Remove the power plug from
the accessory power outlet and
unscrew the inating hose from
the tire valve. SeeRoadside
Assistance Program on page 7-6.
11. Press the on/off button (B) to
turn the tire sealant and
compressor kit off.
The tire is not sealed and
will continue to leak air until
the vehicle is driven and the
sealant is distributed in the tire,
therefore, Steps 12 through 18
must be done immediately after
Step 11.
Be careful while handling the tire
sealant and compressor kit as it
could be warm after usage.12. Unplug the power plug (H) from
the accessory power outlet in
the vehicle.
13. Turn the sealant/air hose (F)
counterclockwise to remove it
from the tire valve stem.
14. Replace the tire valve stem cap.
15. Replace the sealant/air hose (F),
and the power plug (H) back in
their original location.
16. If the at tire was able to inate
to the recommended ination
pressure, remove the maximum
speed label from the sealant
canister (E) and place it in a
highly visible location. The
label is a reminder not to exceed
55 mph (90 km/h) until the
damaged tire is repaired or
replaced.17. Return the equipment to its
original storage location in
the vehicle.
18. Immediately drive the vehicle
5 miles (8 km) to distribute the
sealant in the tire.
19. Stop at a safe location and
check the tire pressure.
Refer to Steps 1 through 11
under “Using the Tire Sealant
and Compressor Kit without
Sealant to Inate a Tire
(Not Punctured).”
If the tire pressure has fallen
more than 10 psi (68 kPa) below
the recommended ination
pressure, stop driving the
vehicle. The tire is too severely
damaged and the tire sealant
cannot seal the tire. See
Roadside Assistance Program
on page 7-6.
