Checking Engine Coolant Level

Visually check the checking engine coolant level (ECL) at the see-through coolant reservoir, located on the right side of the engine compartment. ECL should be near the LOW mark on the reservoir when the engine is cold. The ECL should increase somewhat as the vehicle is running. With the engine at normal running temperature,

^ ECL should be between the LOW and FULL marks.
^ Should the ECL prove to be low, refill the cooling system through the coolant recovery reservoir with a mixture of 50% water and 50% ethylene glycol antifreeze.

CAUTION: To avoid possible damage to the cooling system, alcohol or methanol-based coolants or pure water should not be used at any time.
