A
2.3.4 Topping up with coolant
The coolant must meet the following re-
quirements:
• Always use a mixture of refrigerant
and water. Never use just water.
• Mix the water and refrigerant accord-
ing to the refrigerant supplier’s
instructions.
• Never mix different refrigerants.
• Use soft water (no calcium content),
distilled or demineralised water.
Warning!
If the radiator cap is opened
when the engine is hot there is
a risk of serious burn injuries
from hot water that may spray
out.
Top up as follows:
1. Remove the front engine cover.
2. Check that all the plugs in the cooling
system are installed and sealed.
3. Check that the drain screw D is closed
and sealed.
4. Check that all the hoses in the cooling
system are intact and sealed.
5. Unscrew the radiator cap A.
6. Slowly fill the radiator with coolant. Air
bubbles must not form when filling. Fill
up to the filler hole.
7. Reinstall the radiator cap.
8. Open the cap on the expansion tank B
and top up the mixture to the lower
mark, which is the level when the en-
gine is cold.
9. Close the cap for the expansion tank.
10. Run the engine to operating tempera-
ture and check the level in the expan-
sion tank. The level should now be at
the upper mark C, which is the level
for when the engine is hot.
11. If the level is not up to the upper mark,
allow the engine to cool and then top
up with coolant in the expansion tank.
