  1. Add engine coolant to coolant recovery reservoir until level is between "COOLANT FILL LEVEL" marks.
  2. Add engine coolant up to radiator filler and install radiator cap.
  3. Select maximum heater temperature and blower motor speed settings. Position control to discharge air at vents in instrument panel.
  4. Start the engine and allow to idle. While engine is idling, feel for hot air at vents.
    CAUTION: If air discharge remains cool and engine coolant temperature gauge does not move, engine coolant level is low in engine and must be filled. Stop engine, allow to cool and fill cooling system. Start engine and allow to idle until normal operating temperature is reached. Hot air should discharge from vents. Engine coolant temperature gauge should maintain a stabilized reading in middle of "NORMAL" range and upper radiator hose should feel hot to touch.
