Check the level of the engine
coolant in the reservoir at least once
a month. Be sure to read and
understand Precautions when
servicing your vehicle in this

If the engine coolant has not been checked at the above recommended
interval, the engine coolant reservoir may become empty. If this occurs,
add engine coolant to the reservoir. For more information on engine
coolant maintenance, refer to Adding engine coolant in this chapter.
Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use engine coolant,
antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified function and
vehicle location.
Adding engine coolant
Do not put engine coolant in the container for the windshield
washer fluid.
If sprayed on the windshield, engine coolant could make it difficult to see
through the windshield.
When the engine is cool, add a 50/50 mixture of engine coolant and
water to the engine coolant recovery reservoir-DO NOT ADD DIRECTLY
TO THE RADIATOR. Add straight water only in an emergency, but you
should replace it with a 50/50 mixture of coolant and distilled water as
soon as possible.
