NOTICE:
After you've used the coolant heater, be sure to
store the cord
as
it was before to keep it away
from moving engine parts. If you don't, it could
be damaged.
How long should you keep the coolant heater plugged
in? The answer depends on the weather, the kind of oil
you have, and some other things. Instead of trying to list
everything here, we ask that you contact your Buick
dealer in the area where you'll be parking your vehicle.
The dealer can give you the best advice for that
particular area.
