Engine coolant recovery reservoir Adding engine coolant RWARNING Do not put engine coolant in the container for the windshield washer fluid. If sprayed to clean the glass, engine coolant or antifreeze could make it difficult to see through the windshield. Add engine coolant only to the coolant reservoir. If the coolant level is low, add to the reservoir a 50/50 mixture of water and the type of engine coolant that Ford specifies. You may add water by itself only in an emergency, but you should replace it with a 50/50 mixture as soon as possible. Check the engine coolant again the next few times you drive your vehicle. RWARNING Never remove the coolant recovery cap while the engine is running or hot. 191
