Coolant Level Check

Do not remove radiator cap for routine coolant level inspections.
The coolant reserve system provides a quick visual method for determining the coolant level without removing the radiator cap. With the engine cold and not running, simply observe the level of the coolant in the reserve tank. The level should be between the minimum and maximum marks.
