Add where you normally would, except, wait until it cools down some. Use caution when you remove the cap and turn your face the other way so that the hot steam does not get all over your face. If possible, use a gloved hand or rags because it will be extremely hot. Prepare to pour your correct mixture of antifreeze and water (seek owners manual) and run the engine while adding. If you don't run the engine, you could crack the engine block.

To raise the boiling point of the coolant.
Can you put water in where you put the engine coolant?
It is not recommended to put plain water in the engine coolant reservoir as a substitute for coolant. While water can temporarily help lower engine temperatures, it lacks the necessary additives to prevent corrosion, raise the boiling point, and lower the freezing point. If you must use water in an emergency, it’s best to replace it with the proper coolant mixture as soon as possible. Always check your vehicle's manual for specific recommendations.

Why cold boiling happens in engine?
Cold boiling in an engine occurs when the temperature of the coolant drops below the boiling point due to low pressure, causing the coolant to vaporize despite being at a lower temperature. This phenomenon can result from inadequate coolant circulation, a malfunctioning thermostat, or air pockets in the cooling system. As vapor bubbles form, they can disrupt coolant flow, leading to overheating and potential engine damage. Proper system maintenance and pressure regulation are crucial to prevent cold boiling.
