CAUTION:
  • Do not use water instead of coolant.
  • < Ref. to ENGINE COOLANT , RECOMMENDED MATERIALS, Recommended Materials. >
  1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
  2. Make sure the engine coolant level in the reservoir tank is between "FULL" and "LOW" when the engine is cold.
    NOTE: If the engine coolant level drops, make sure that there are no engine coolant leakage, and add engine coolant to the "FULL" line.
