Volvo 1990 780 Model
Start the engine and run until hot. Check the cooling system connections for tightness. Also re-check the coolant level.
Capacity: See "Specifications"
Coolant: Volvo Coolant type C (blue green)
CAUTION!
The cooling system must always be kept filled to correct level.
If it is not kept filled, there can be high local temperatures in the engine which could result in
damage.
Top up with coolant
Top up with coolant by filling the expansion tank when level is at the "Min" mark. Use a mixture of 50 percent anti-freeze/
summer coolant and 50 percent water all the year round. Top up to the "Max" mark.
WARNING! If the engine is warm and you are going to top up coolant, unscrew the cap slowly in order to allow any excess
pressure to escape.
NOTE: Do not top up with water only. Water by itself reduces the rust-protective and anti-freeze qualities of the coolant and
has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling system if it should freeze.
