Engine Coolant; Checking The Coolant Level - Subaru 1998 Impreza Owner's Manual

Engine coolant

J Checking the coolant level
WARNING
D Never attempt to remove the radiator cap until the engine has
been shut off and has cooled down completely. Since the coolant
is under pressure, you may suffer serious burns by a spray of
boiling hot coolant when the cap is removed.
D Never let engine coolant contact your eyes because engine
coolant can be harmful to your eyes. If engine coolant gets in
your eyes, immediately flush them thoroughly with clean water.
For safety, when performing this work, wearing eye protection is
advisable.
Check the coolant level at each fuel stop.
"FULL"
level mark
"LOW"

1. Check the coolant level on the outside of the reservoir while the en-
gine is cool.
2. If the level is close to or lower than the "LOW" level mark, add coolant
up to the "FULL" level mark. If the reserve tank is empty, remove the ra-
diator cap and refill as required.
