Slowly pour coolant into the reserve tank until it reaches the full line.
When using the intelligent tester:
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Active Test / Activate the Water Pump.
Keep the coolant at the full line in the reserve tank to compensate for the drop in coolant level when the air bleeds.
When not using the intelligent tester:
Turn the power switch on (READY). [*1]
Turn the power switch off and add coolant to the full line because the coolant level drops as the air bleeds. [*2]
Repeat steps [*1] and [*2] until air bleeding from the cooling system is completed.
After the air is completely bled from the cooling system, tighten the reserve tank cap.
![]() |
Add coolant to the full line of the reserve tank.
| 25. ADD COOLANT (for Engine) |

![]() |
Add coolant to B line of the reserve tank.
| *1 | B Line |
| Item | Capacity |
| Engine coolant | w/ Exhaust Heat Recirculation System: 6.9 liters (7.3 US qts, 6.1 lmp. qts) |
| w/o Exhaust Heat Recirculation System: 6.5 liters (6.9 US qts, 5.7 lmp. qts) |
Squeeze the radiator hoses several times by hand, and then check the level of the coolant.
If the coolant level is low, add coolant.
Put the engine in inspection mode (Click here).
Install the reserve tank cap.
Bleed air from the cooling system.
Warm up the engine until the thermostat opens. While the thermostat is open, allow the coolant to circulate for several minutes. (●1)
Stop the engine and wait until the coolant cools down. Then if the coolant level is below the low line, add coolant so that the level will be between the full and low lines. (●2)
Repeat the steps from (●1) to (●2) until the coolant level of the reserve tank remains above the low line.
