Stand in front of the motor. The plastic bucket with the black cap on your left is the coolant resevoir. It's probably half full with green liquid. Anti-freeze goes in there (50/50 mix with water). When the car is warm, the level should be slightly more than half way between min and max. You NEVER remove a radiator cap on a hot engine. Fortunately, the 9000 does not have a radiator cap. It only has the coolant resevior (aka expansion tank), which you can remove the cap from at any time except if the tank looks like it is filled to the top, or you see green liquid oozing out of the cap. If that happens, come back later.
Don't remove the oil dipstick if the car's running. It will stall.
You need to be able to identify each of the fluid reseviors and know how to check the fluid level in each. Sometimes you top off, sometimes not.
The antenna job was an ambitious first task. However, you still need to proceed conservatively.
