If this light comes on, it
means you're low on
engine
coolant.
Adding Coolant
If you need more coolant, add the proper REX-COOL@
coolant
mixture
at
the coolant recovery tank.
lbrning the radiator pressure cap when the
engine and radiator
are
hot can allow steam and
scalding liquids
to
blow out and burn you badly.
With the coolant recovery tank, you will almost
never have to add coolant at the radiator.
Never turn the radiator pressure cap
--
even a
little
I -
when
the engine
and radiator
are hot.
Add coolant mixture at the recovery tank, but be careful
not to spill it.
You can be burned if you spill coolant on hot
engine parts. Coolant contains ethylene glycol,
and it will burn if the engine parts are hot
enough. Don't spill coolant on
a
hot engine.

Radiator Pressure Cap
NOTICE:
Your radiator cap
is a
15 psi (105 Wa)
pressure-type cap and must be tightly installed
to prevent coolant loss and possible engine
damage from overheating. Be sure the arrows
on the cap line up with the overflow tube on
the radiator filler neck.
When you replace your radiator pressure cap,
a
GM cap
is recommended.
