Engine Coolant Level Check - Gasoline
Engines
Your vehicle has been equipped
with an improved engine coolant
(antifreeze) that offers high protection
against corrosion, freezing and allows
extended maintenance intervals.
To prevent reducing extended
maintenance periods, it is important
to use original engine coolant
(antifreeze) when adding coolant
throughout the life of your vehicle.
When adding engine coolant
(antifreeze) use pure water only, such
as distilled or deionized water when
mixing the water/engine coolant
(antifreeze) solution. The use of
impure water will reduce the amount
of corrosion protection in the engine
cooling system.
• Mix a minimum solution of 50%
engine coolant (antifreeze)
and distilled water. Use higher
concentrations (do not exceed 70%)
if temperatures below −37°C (−35°F)
are forecasted.
Please note that it is the owner's
responsibility to maintain the proper
level of protection against freezing
according to the temperatures
occurring in the circulation area of the
vehicle.
The coolant bottle provides a quick
visual method to determine that the
coolant level is adequate. As long as
the engine operating temperature is
satisfactory, the coolant bottle only
needs to be checked once a month.
With the engine off and cold, the level
of the coolant in the bottle on the
left side of the engine compartment
should be between the ranges
indicated on the bottle and inside the
filler neck.

• Once the desired level is reached,
reassemble and firmly close cap of
the bottle.
