MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS

Have your vehicle serviced regularly to help
maintain its roadworthiness and resale
value. There is a large network of
authorized dealers that are there to help
you with their professional servicing
expertise. We believe that their specially
trained technicians are best qualified to
service your vehicle properly and expertly.
They are supported by a wide range of
highly specialized tools developed
specifically for servicing your vehicle.

If your vehicle requires professional service,
an authorized dealer can provide the
necessary parts and service. Check your
warranty information to find out which
parts and services are covered.

Use only recommended fluids and service
parts conforming to specifications. See

Capacities and Specifications

(page

346).

Note:

Some of these components are

and cannot be seen unless the cover is
removed. See

Installing and Removing

the Luggage Compartment Cover

(page

278).

CHECKING THE COOLANT

WARNING:

Do not remove the

coolant reservoir cap when the vehicle
is on or the cooling system is hot. Wait
10 minutes for the cooling system to cool
down. Cover the coolant reservoir cap
with a thick cloth to prevent the
possibility of scalding and slowly remove
the cap. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury.

WARNING:

Do not put coolant in

the windshield washer reservoir. If
sprayed on the windshield, coolant could
make it difficult to see through the
windshield.

WARNING:

Do not add coolant

further than the

MAX

mark.

Note:

Coolant expands when it is hot. The

level may extend beyond the

MAX

mark.

Your vehicle has a battery cooling system
and a motor electrical cooling system. See

Under Hood Overview

(page 305). The

luggage compartment covers need to be
removed in order to access the reservoirs.
See

Installing and Removing the

Luggage Compartment Cover

(page 278).

When the electric motor is cold, check the
concentration and level of the coolant at
the intervals listed in the scheduled
maintenance information. See

Scheduled

Maintenance

(page 392).

Maintain coolant concentration within
48% to 50%, which equates to a freeze
point between -29–-35°F (-34–-37°C).
Check coolant concentration using a
refractometer. We do not recommend the
use of hydrometers or coolant test strips
for measuring coolant concentration.

Adding Coolant

It is very important to use prediluted
coolant approved to the correct
specification in order to avoid plugging the
small passageways in the electric motor
cooling system. See

Cooling System

Capacity and Specification

(page 346).

Do not mix different colors or types of
coolant in your vehicle. Mixing of coolants
or using an incorrect coolant may harm the
electric motor or cooling system
components and may cause damage that
the vehicle warranty may not cover.

Note:

Automotive fluids are not

interchangeable.

Note:

Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling

system sealants, or non-specified additives
as they can cause damage to the electric
motor cooling or heating systems.
