Coolant refilling
To start up the engine and when the cooling circuit needs topping up
with a considerable amount of coolant, proceed as indicated below:
Refill the engine and the exchanger until the exchanger is
completely filled.
With the coolant filler plug open, start the engine and let it run at
idle for approx. 1 minute. This helps to completely bleed the air
contained in the cooling circuit.
Stop the engine and then top up with coolant if necessary.
Refuelling
Use only diesel oil in accordance with EN 590 standard normally
commercially available. Fuel additives are not recommended.
The use of additives can limit the warranty services offered for the
vehicle.
Diesel oil for low temperatures
The degree of fluidity of the diesel oil can may be reduced at low
temperatures due to the separation of the paraffin. This results in the
filters becoming clogged.
EN590 specifications distinguish different classes of diesel fuel,
identifying the characteristics of those best suited to low temperatures.
Oil companies must respect these standards, which provide for the
distribution of fuels adapted to the climatic and geographical
conditions in various countries.
The failure to observe the aforesaid procedure does not
guarantee the presence of the correct quantity of
coolant in the engine.
WARNING
When the engine is hot, pressure builds up in the
cooling circuits which may eject hot liquid violently,
resulting in a risk of burns. Open the filler cap of the
coolant tank only if necessary and only when the
engine is cold.
WARNING
Pay maximum attention when refuelling, making sure
that solid or liquid pollutants do not enter the tank;
please remember that smoking is prohibited while
refuelling. The couplings of the fuel circuit under high
pressure must not be loosened under any
circumstances.
