5. Wait for one minute after the engine stops (ignition OFF), and open the radiator cap. If the engine coolant level drops, add engine coolant into radiator up to the filler neck position.

6. Perform the procedures 4) and 5) again.

7. Attach the radiator cap and reservoir tank cap properly.

8. Start the engine and operate the heater at maximum hot position and the blower speed setting to “LO”. (A/C OFF)
