ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
WARNINGS
Never remove the coolant reservoircap when the engine is running or hot.
Do not put coolant in the windshieldwasher reservoir. If sprayed on thewindshield, coolant could make it difficult tosee through the windshield.
To reduce the risk of personal injury,make sure the engine is cool beforeunscrewing the coolant pressure relief cap.The cooling system is under pressure. Steamand hot liquid can come out forcefully whenyou loosen the cap slightly.
WARNINGS
Do not add coolant further than theMAX mark.
When the engine is cold, check theconcentration and level of the coolant at theintervals listed in the scheduled maintenanceinformation. See Scheduled Maintenance(page 509).
Note:Make sure that the coolant level isbetween the MIN and the MAX marks onthe coolant reservoir.
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. Thelevel may extend beyond the MAX mark.
Maintain coolant concentration within 48%to 50%, which equates to a freeze pointbetween -30°F (-34°C) and -34°F (-37°C).Coolant concentration should be checkedusing a refractometer. We recommend,Robinair® Coolant and Battery Refractometer75240 (Rotunda tool part number:ROB75240). We do not recommend the useof hydrometers or coolant test strips formeasuring coolant concentration.
