Coolant Level - Check
NOTE:
Do not mix ethylene glycol and propylene glycol
antifreeze together.
See "Engine Cooling System" and "Types of
Antifreeze" page for further details.
1.
When the engine is cold, remove radiator cap and check the
coolant level inside the radiator. Do not rely on the level of
coolant in the coolant recovery tank. Refill radiator as required.
Refer to coolant concentration table. (See page 4-93)
2.
Check to make sure that coolant transfer line from the
coolant recovery tank to the radiator is free and clear of
obstructions, or is not pinched.
3.
Check the level of coolant in the coolant recovery tank. The
normal cold engine fluid level must be between "FULL" and
"LOW" marks on tank.
4.
If the coolant is below the "LOW" mark, add genuine part of
50% concentration coolant to the tank.
Window Washer Liquid Level - Check
1.
Open left front access door and check fluid level in
windshield washer tank.
2.
Open fill cap and add fluid.
NOTE:
Use a washer liquid that is rated for all seasons.
This will prevent freezing during cold weather
operation.
WARNING
AVOID DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY
Allow the engine to cool before releasing the radiator cap.
Loosen the cap slowly to release any remaining pressure.
Radiator cleaning is performed while the engine is running.
Lock out and tag the controls alerting personnel that
service work is being performed. Do not remove radiator
cap unless it is required. Check the coolant level in the
coolant recovery tank.
