Coolant Level Check - Routine

NOTE: Do not remove pressure cap for routine coolant level inspections.

The coolant bottle provides a quick visual method for determining the coolant level without removing the pressure cap. With the engine cold and not running, simply observe the level of the coolant in the coolant recovery container (2.4L) (Fig 1) or the coolant pressure container (2.7L) (Fig 2). The level should be between the MIN and MAX marks.
