If you need more coolant, add the proper DEX
coolant mixture at the coolant recovery tank, but be
careful not to spill it.
If the coolant recovery tank is completely empty, add
coolant to the radiator. (See "Engine Overheating"
in the Index.)
CAUTION:
Turning the radiator pressure cap when the
engine and radiator are hot can allow steam and
scalding liquids to blow out and burn you badly.
With the coolant recovery tank, you will almost

You can be burned if you spill coolant on hot

Occasionally check the coolant level in the radiator. For
information on how to add coolant to the radiator, see
"Cooling System" in the Index.
