Coolant is applied by pouring a coolant mixture gradually into either the radiator or the coolant reservoir until it reaches the proper fill level.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Safety First: Ensure the engine is cool before starting. If the radiator has a pressure cap, release any residual pressure slowly by twisting the cap carefully.
- Locate Fill Point: Determine whether to add coolant directly to the radiator or the coolant reservoir.
- Pour Coolant: Gradually pour the coolant mixture into the designated location. The reference states "Pour the coolant mixture into the reservoir or the radiator gradually."
- Fill to Proper Level: Monitor the coolant level as you pour. The reference mentions, "As directed by the reservoir, fill it to the proper level".
