Coolant Surge Tank Pressure Cap; Engine Overheating - Chevrolet Pontiac Wave 2007 Owner's Manual

Adding Coolant
If you need more coolant, add the proper
®
DEX-COOL coolant mixture at the coolant surge
tank, but only when the engine is cool. If the
coolant surge tank is empty, a special fill
procedure is necessary. See Engine Overheating
on page 290 for instructions on "How to Add
Coolant to the Coolant Surge Tank."
CAUTION:
{
You can be burned if you spill coolant on
hot engine parts. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol, and it will burn if the
engine parts are hot enough. Do not spill
coolant on a hot engine.
When replacing the pressure cap, make sure it is
hand-tight and fully seated.
