ENGINE COOLANT CHECK

WARNINGS
Never remove the coolant reservoir
cap while the engine is running or hot.
Only add coolant when the engine is
cold. If the engine is hot, wait 10
minutes for the engine to cool down.
Do not allow the fluid to touch your
skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the
affected areas immediately with
plenty of water and contact your physician.
Undiluted coolant is flammable and
may ignite if spilt on a hot exhaust.
E169064
Make sure that the coolant level is
between the MIN and MAX marks on the
coolant reservoir. If the level is at the MIN
mark, below the MIN mark, or empty, add
coolant immediately. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 270).
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. The
level may extend beyond the MAX mark.

Adding Engine Coolant
1. Remove the filler cap.
2. Add engine coolant to the MAX mark,
do not overfill.
3. Replace the filler cap. Turn it until you
feel a strong resistance.
Note: Add a 50/50 mixture of antifreeze
and water or prediluted engine coolant that
meets the correct specification. See
Capacities and Specifications (page 270).
Note: In case of emergency, you can add a
large amount of water without engine
coolant in order to reach a vehicle service
location.
Note: Prolonged use of an incorrect dilution
of engine coolant can cause engine damage,
such as corrosion, overheating or freezing.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
FLUID CHECK
6F35 Transmission
The automatic transmission does not have
a transmission fluid dipstick.
The automatic transmission does not
consume fluid. If the transmission is not
working correctly, for example, the
transmission slips, shifts slowly or there
are signs of fluid leakage, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.
Change the automatic transmission fluid
and filter at the correct service interval.
Do not use supplemental automatic
transmission fluid additives because they
are unnecessary and could lead to
transmission damage that may not be
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
