diameter of 64 mm (2.5 in) or smaller, and
thick enough to make sure the jack does not
contact the vehicle body.
Position the service jack and lifting pad
under the frame rail shipping slot
reinforcement.

Service Work 0233.

Doing Your Own Service Work
{Warning
It can be dangerous to work on your
vehicle if you do not have the proper
knowledge, service manual, tools,
or parts. Always follow owner’s manual
procedures and consult the service
manual for your vehicle before doing any
service work.
If doing some of your own service work, use
the proper service manual. It tells you much
more about how to service the vehicle than
this manual can. To order the proper service
manual, see Publication Ordering
Information 0315.
This vehicle has an airbag system. Before
attempting to do your own service work,
see Servicing the Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
0 60. If equipped with remote vehicle start, open
the hatch/trunk before performing any
service work to prevent remote starting the
vehicle accidentally. See
Remote Vehicle
Start 012.
Keep a record with all parts receipts and list
the mileage and the date of any service
work performed. See Maintenance Records
0 303.
Caution
Even small amounts of contamination can
cause damage to vehicle systems. Do not
allow contaminants to contact the fluids,
reservoir caps, or dipsticks.

How to Add Coolant to the Coolant
Surge Tank
{Warning
Spilling coolant on hot engine parts can
burn you. Coolant contains ethylene
glycol and it will burn if the engine parts
are hot enough.
{Warning
Steam and scalding liquids from a hot
cooling system are under pressure.
Turning the pressure cap, even a little,
can cause them to come out at high
speed and you could be burned. Never
turn the cap when the cooling system,
including the pressure cap, is hot. Wait
for the cooling system and pressure cap
to cool.
If coolant is needed, be sure the cooling
system is cool, then add the proper
DEX-COOL coolant mixture directly to the
surge tank. 1. Open the Hatch/Trunk. See Hatch (Trunk)
0 19.
2. When the cooling system, including the
coolant surge tank pressure cap and
engine, is no longer hot, remove the
pressure cap.
Turn the pressure cap slowly
counterclockwise about one-quarter turn
and then stop.
If a hiss is heard, wait for that to stop.
A hiss means there is still some
pressure left.
3. Keep turning the pressure cap slowly, and remove it.
4. Fill the coolant surge tank with theproper mixture until the level inside
stabilizes at the COLD FILL indicator in
the surge tank.
5. With the coolant surge tank pressure cap off, start the engine and let it run until
the engine is hot.
By this time, the coolant level inside the
coolant surge tank may be lower. If the
level is lower, add more of the proper
mixture to the coolant surge tank until
the level stabilizes at the COLD FILL
indicator in the coolant surge tank.
6. Replace the pressure cap tightly.

Gas Strut(s)
This vehicle is equipped with gas strut(s) to
provide assistance in lifting and holding
open the hood/trunk/liftgate system in full
open position.
{Warning
If the gas struts that hold open the hood,
trunk, and/or liftgate fail, you or others
could be seriously injured. Take the
vehicle to your dealer for service
immediately. Visually inspect the gas
struts for signs of wear, cracks, or other
damage periodically. Check to make sure
the hood/trunk/liftgate is held open with
enough force. If struts are failing to hold
the hood/trunk/liftgate, do not operate.
Have the vehicle serviced.
Caution
Do not apply tape or hang any objects
from gas struts. Also do not push down
or pull on gas struts. This may cause
damage to the vehicle.
See Maintenance Schedule 0293.
