Kia Niro: Engine Coolant / Checking the coolant level
WARNING Removing radiator cap
- Never attempt to remove the radiator cap while the engine is operating or hot. Doing so might lead to cooling system and engine damage. Also, hot coolant or steam could cause serious personal injury.
- Turn the engine off and wait until it cools down. Use extreme care when
removing the radiator cap. Wrap a thick towel around it, and turn it counterclockwise
slowly to the first stop. Step back while the pressure is released from the
cooling system.
When you are sure all the pressure has been released, press down on the cap, using a thick towel, and continue turning counterclockwise to remove it. - Even if the engine is not operating, do not remove the radiator cap or the drain plug while the engine and radiator are hot. Hot coolant and steam may still blow out under pressure, causing serious injury.
WARNING
The electric motor (cooling fan) is controlled by engine coolant temperature, refrigerant pressure and vehicle speed. It may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blades. As the engine coolant temperature decreases, the electric motor will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
If your vehicle is equipped with GDI, the electric motor (cooling fan) may operate until you disconnect the negative battery cable.
