tank
The coolant heat storage tank system
stores hot coolant and feeds it via the
electric water pump automatically to warm
the engine as required. This system helps
generate clean emissions. To confirm the
coolant heat storage system check, the
pump may operate automatically with the
vehicle stopped (in the "OFF" mode).
Although the pump may operate
cause noise while the vehicle is stopped,
this does not indicate a malfunction.
