WARNING! Do not remove the radiator cap when the radiator is hot. STEAM from the radiator will cause severe burns. Do not remove the radiator cap to check the coolant level.

WARNING! Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is running. Stop the engine and wait until it has cooled. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury from hot coolant or steam blowout and/or damage to the cooling system or engine.

Inspect the coolant level in the overflow bottle only

If the level is low, add a 50/50 mixture of specified coolant and water to the correct fill level

Check engine oil for presence of coolant leaking into engine

Inspect the coolant for condition. Look for excessive contamination or rust or oil in the coolant solution

Check the PM time interval for need to change coolant

Check the condition of radiator cap rubber seal and radiator filler neck for damage. Be sure they are clean

NOTICE! The steering system, steer axle, and steering linkage on your truck should be inspected periodically for abnormal looseness and damage, leaking seals, etc. Also, be alert for any changes in steering action. Hard steering, excessive freeplay (looseness), or unusual sound when turning or maneuvering indicates a need for inspection or servicing.

WARNING! Fasten your seat belt before driving the truck.

Check the steering system by moving the steering handwheel in a full right turn and then in a full left turn.

Return the handwheel to the straight-ahead position.

The steering system components should operate smoothly when the handwheel is turned.
