Open the hood and ensure it is securely supported. Locate the coolant reservoir at the rear left (when facing the engine), detach it by pulling it upward, disconnect the hoses connected to it and the level sensor connector.

Then, install the new reservoir by reconnecting the hoses and the connector, secure it to the vehicle's frame at the designated tabs, and restore the coolant level (you can also top off with distilled water if antifreeze is not available).
