Adding Engine Coolant

WARNING: Do not add engine coolant when the engine is hot.

Steam and scalding liquids released from a hot cooling system

can burn you badly. Also, you can be burned if you spill coolant on hot

engine parts.

WARNING: Do not put engine coolant in the windshield washer

fluid container. If sprayed on the windshield, engine coolant

could make it difficult to see through the windshield.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, make sure the

engine is cool before unscrewing the coolant pressure relief cap.

The cooling system is under pressure; steam and hot liquid can come

out forcefully when the cap is loosened slightly.

WARNING: Do not add coolant further than the MAX mark.

Note: Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling system sealants or additives

as they can cause damage to the engine cooling or heating systems. This

damage would not be covered under your vehicle’s warranty.

Note: During normal vehicle operation, the engine coolant may change

color from orange to pink or light red. As long as the engine coolant is

clear and uncontaminated, this color change does not indicate the engine

coolant has degraded nor does it require the engine coolant to be

drained, the system to be flushed, or the engine coolant to be replaced.

• DO NOT MIX different colors or types of coolant in your vehicle. Make

sure the correct coolant is used. Mixing of engine coolants may harm

your engine’s cooling system. The use of an improper coolant may

harm engine and cooling system components and may void the

warranty.

• In case of emergency, a large amount of water without engine coolant

may be added in order to reach a vehicle service location. In this

instance, the cooling system must be drained, chemically cleaned with

Motorcraft Premium Cooling System Flush, and refilled with engine

coolant as soon as possible. Water alone (without engine coolant) can

cause engine damage from corrosion, overheating or freezing.
