Description & Operation: Notes
WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the coolant recovery reservoir cap while the engine and radiator is still hot. Scalding fluid and steam may be blown out under pressure. Check the engine coolant level visually in the "see-through"reservoir. The level should be at or above the "FULL COLD" mark on the tank when the engine is cold. At normal operating temperatures the engine coolant level should be above the "FULL COLD" mark on the tank.
WARNING:
Vehicles are equipped with air bag supplemental restraint system. Before attempting any repairs involving steering column, instrument panel or related components, see SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM in appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS article.
CAUTION:
When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION before disconnecting battery.
The cooling system utilizes 2 plastic fans. The fans are driven by individual electric motors which are controlled electrically by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Fan speed is variable and is controlled based on engine coolant and A/C high-pressure refrigerant temperature.
