Where to Add Coolant for Haval H2s
2 Answers
Haval H2S coolant is added from the coolant reservoir. The coolant reservoir is located in the engine compartment and can be seen by opening the engine hood. Filling method: When the engine is cold, open the hood and locate the engine's coolant reservoir. Unscrew the reservoir cap and open the drain valve (to release the coolant), then clean the inside. Then directly refill the reservoir with the same specification of coolant until the liquid level reaches the maximum mark. Finally, after adding the coolant, simply close the reservoir cap. Precautions: Be careful not to spill the coolant during the filling process. If it comes into contact with the exhaust pipe, it may produce unpleasant odors or even cause smoke and fire. Therefore, if it contacts the exhaust pipe, wipe it off immediately with a wet cloth to prevent sudden ignition.
As a Haval H2 owner, I enjoy doing DIY car maintenance. The coolant refill location is in the translucent expansion tank at the front of the engine compartment, near the windshield. It has a small cap marked with MIN and MAX level indicators. I usually wait 1-2 hours after the engine cools down to perform this task, like on weekend mornings after parking. Just pop the hood to locate it. Remember never to add coolant when the engine is hot - the pressurized hot fluid could spray and cause burns. Pour slowly until reaching the MAX line, but don't overfill to prevent overflow during thermal expansion. I use the OEM-recommended coolant (the green or pink variety) and always inspect hoses for leaks or wear during top-ups. It's quite simple - just use a funnel. Sticking to this DIY routine helps save on maintenance costs.
