In very cold weather, 0°F
(-
18°C) or colder, the engine
coolant heater can help. You'll get easier starting and
better fuel economy during engine warm-up. Usually,
the coolant heater should be plugged in a minimum of
four hours prior to starting your vehicle.
To Use the Engine Coolant Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord.
The electrical cord for the engine coolant heater is in
front of the air cleaner filter and under the headlamp
cover, on the passenger's side of the engine.
3. Plug it into a normal, grounded 1 10-volt AC outlet.
A
CAUTION:
Plugging the cord into an ungrounded outlet
could cause an electrical shock. Also, the wrong
kind of extension cord could overheat and cause
a fire. You could be seriously injured. Plug the
cord into a properly grounded three-prong
110-volt AC outlet. If the cord won't reach, use a
heavy-duty three-prong extension cord rated for
at least
15
amps.
