1) Coolant Level Check

Park the vehicle on level ground and apply the parking brake. Stop the engine and wait until it is 

cooled down. The coolant level should be between the MAX and MIN mark on the coolant reservoir.
If the coolant level is below the “MIN” mark, immediately add coolant.

Scalding hot coolant and steam could be blown out under pressure, which could cause serious 

injury. Never remove the coolant reservoir cap when the engine and radiator are hot. 

Avoid any direct contact of the coolant to the painted body of the vehicle.
