| Changing the Coolant and Performing Air Bleeding |
Never remove the cap while the engine is hot. When you remove the cap from the reservoir, hot coolant may spew out due to the high pressure, causing serious injury. |
When you pour the coolant, be sure to close the relay box cover. Also, make sure that you don't spill the coolant on electrical components or the paint on the vehicle. If you spilled it, wipe it out immediately. |
| 1. | Remove the reservoir cap (A) to drain the coolant quickly.
|
| 2. | Remove the undercover. (Refer to Engine Mechanical System - "Engine Room Undercover".) |
| 3. | Loosen the inverter radiator drain plug (A) and drain the coolant.
|
| 4. | Tighten the inverter radiator drain plug again. |
| 5. | Drain the coolant from the reservoir and clean the tank. |
| 6. | Fill the radiator with water through the reservoir cap and mount the radiator cap.
|
| 7. | Operate the electric water pump (EWP) using the GDS in the IG ON state.
|
| 8. | Repeat the steps 1 - 7 until the drained water becomes clear. |
| 9. | Pour the mixture of antifreeze and water (45 - 50%) into the radiator through the reservoir cap. At this time, press the upper / lower hoses on the radiator so that the air can get out easily.
|
| 10. | Operate the EWP using the GDS while IG ON.
|
| 11. | Once the EWP operates and circulates the coolant, fill the coolant to a level between MAX and MIN.
|
| 12. | If the operating sound of the EWP becomes smaller and no air bubble is seen in the reservoir, stop the air bleeding.
|
| 13. | Stop the EWP and fill the coolant to the MAX level and mount the reservoir cap. |
Removal1.Remove the 12 V battery (-) cable.2.Remove the undercover.(Refer to Engine Mechanical System - "Engine Room Undercover".)3.Drain the coolant from the hybrid cooling system.
Component location1. HPCU (Hybrid Power Control Unit)(LDC+MCU+HCU+Reservoir)2. Hybrid drive motor3. Hybrid starter generator (HSG)4. Electrical radiator5.
DescriptionThe mode control actuator is located at the heater unit.It adjusts the position of the mode door by operating the mode control actuator based on the signal of the A/C control unit. Pressing the mode select switch makes the mode control actuator shift in order of Vent → Bi-Level → Floor → Mix.
