G050D01HR-GAT To Change the Coolant The coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the vehiclemaintenance schedule in Section 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the fin-ish of your car. If you spill enginecoolant on the car, wash it off thor- oughly with clean water.
!
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and lift up the front passenger's seat. (Refer to "To in- spect the Engine Compartment Un- der the Front Passenger's Seat" onpage 1-13). 2. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without pressing down on it,until it stops. This relieves any pres-sure remaining in the cooling sys- tem. And remove the radiator cap by pushing down and turning counter-clockwise.
WARNING:
Remove the radiator cap when the radiator is cool. 3. Be sure your drain receptacle is in
place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allow all the engine coolant to drain from the cooling system, then securely close the drain cock.
4. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car. Then,following the manufacturer's direc-tions on the engine coolant contain- er, add the appropriate quantity of coolant to the radiator.
5. Fill the radiator with clean demineral- ized or distilled water. Continue toadd clean demineralized or distilledwater in small quantities until the fluid level stays up in the radiator neck.
