- repeat the above operation.
It is impossible to fill the system completely with the necessary
coolant volume without engine launch due to the existence of
air in the interior heaters and connecting hoses. Fill the system
as follows:
- set the additional heater (if installed) switcher 5 (Fig. 3.7)
to ON position;
- fill the cooling system with a coolant via an expansion tank
inlet 3-4cm beyond the MIN mark;
- start the engine, add the cooling fluid to the cooler upper
tank when its level decreases, and close the cooler plug;
- stop the engine, let it cool down, raise the cooling fluid
level in the expansion chamber to the standard and close the
expansion chamber plug;
- run 2-3 cycles of the engine warm-up — cool-down and
raise the cooling fluid level again in the expansion chamber to
the standard.
WARNING!
The manufacturer bears NO responsibility for
cooling system elements break down caused by water freeze.
Replacement and tensioning of mounted units drive belts
Regularly check the belts tension and condition. Replace the
belts when damaged or overstretched.
Determine the tension of fan drive belt, power steering pump
and air conditioner compressor as follows:
- loosen bolt 4 (Fig. 9.14);
- by turning one of the tension rollers 3, bring the belt
tension to the necessary value (for standard values, see Table
"Specifications");
- tighten bolt 4.
Use the second roller if you can not achieve the specified
tension using one roller.
The belt shall be replaced as per the following order:
- loosen bolts 4;
- by turning rollers 3, release the belt tension;
- replace the belt and set its tension as specified above.
The belt stretcher 3 (Fig. 9.15), the generator drive, cooling
system pump and the HPFP are ensured by the automatic belt
tensioner 2. During operation, automatic tensioner does not
require maintenance and adjustment.
