Cooling System - Cadillac XT5 2017 Owner's Manual

Warning
Operating the engine with the air
cleaner/filter off can cause you or
others to be burned. The air cleaner
not only cleans the air; it helps to
stop flames if the engine backfires.
Use caution when working on the
engine and do not drive with the air
cleaner/filter off.
Caution
If the air cleaner/filter is off, dirt
can easily get into the engine,
which could damage it. Always have
the air cleaner/filter in place when
you are driving.

Cooling System

The cooling system allows the engine
to maintain the correct working
temperature.
1. Electric Engine Cooling Fan
(Out of View)
2. Coolant Surge Tank and
Pressure Cap
Warning
An electric engine cooling fan
under the bonnet can start up even
when the engine is not running and
can cause injury. Keep hands,
clothing, and tools away from any
underbonnet electric fan.
VEHICLE CARE
Warning
Heater and radiator hoses, and
other engine parts, can be very hot.
Do not touch them. If you do, you
can be burned.
Do not run the engine if there is a
leak. If you run the engine, it could
lose all coolant. That could cause
an engine fire, and you could be
burned. Get any leak fixed before
you drive the vehicle.
Caution
Using coolant other than
®
DEX-COOL can cause premature
engine, heater core, or radiator
corrosion. In addition, the engine
coolant could require changing
sooner. Any repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always use DEX-COOL (silicate-free)
coolant in the vehicle.
