Engine Coolant Heater

Your vehicle has an engine coolant heater. In very cold

weather 0°F (−18°C) or colder, the engine coolant heater

can help. You will get easier starting and better fuel

economy during engine warm-up. Usually, the coolant

heater should be plugged in a minimum of four hours

prior to starting your vehicle. At temperatures above

32°F (0°C), use of the coolant heater is not required.

To Use the Engine Coolant Heater

1. Turn off the engine.

2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord.

The electrical cord is located near the battery.

3. Plug the cord into a normal, grounded 110-volt

AC outlet.

{CAUTION:

Plugging the cord into an ungrounded outlet

could cause an electrical shock. Also, the

wrong kind of extension cord could overheat

and cause a ﬁre. You could be seriously

injured.Plug the cord into a properly grounded

three-prong 110-volt AC outlet. If the cord will

not reach, use a heavy-duty three-prong

extension cord rated for at least 15 amps.

4. Before starting the engine, be sure to unplug and

store the cord as it was before to keep it away

from moving engine parts. If you do not, it could

be damaged.

How long should you keep the coolant heater plugged

in? The answer depends on the outside temperature,

the kind of oil you have, and some other things.

Instead of trying to list everything here, we ask that

you contact your dealer in the area where you will be

parking your vehicle. The dealer can give you the

best advice for that particular area.
