You may not be loosing coolant. Its just a message saying it is starting to get hot, and coolant may be the fix. You may have low coolant, just check it, 210 is getting a little warm, you may need the thermostat replaced, or the temperature sending unit may need replacing. Or you may have a plugged radiator. Make sure the fans are working on the radiator to keep the engine temperature down.
