check the coolant reservoir. If it
is dry, add coolant to the
reservoir while the engine is
running. Fill it between the two

temperature has cooled to normal,
check the coolant level in the

CAUTION
Upon jacking, be sure to observe
the following to reduce the
possibility of personal injury:
● Follow jacking instructions.
● Do not put any part of your
body under the vehicle
supported by the jack.
Otherwise, personal injury may
occur.
● Do not start or run the engine
while your vehicle is supported
by the jack.
● Stop the vehicle on a level firm
ground, firmly set the parking
brake, and put the
transmission in neutral. Block
the wheel diagonally opposite
to the one being changed if
necessary.
● Make sure to set the jack
properly in the jack point.
Raising the vehicle with a jack
improperly positioned will
damage the vehicle or may
allow the vehicle to fall off the
jack and cause personal injury.
● Never get under the vehicle
when the vehicle is supported
by the jack alone.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to remove the
radiator cap when the engine and
radiator are hot. Serious injury
could be resulted from hot fluid
and steam blown out under
