Maintaining the engine coolant at the proper level
is essential to engine service life. Improper coolant
level will affect the engine's cooling capability and
damage engine components. Daily checks will
allow the inspector to identify changes in coolant
level that might indicate cooling system problems.
Burn hazard. Beware of hot
engine parts and coolant. Contact
with hot engine parts and/or
coolant may cause severe burns.

tank. Add fluid as needed.
