Vehicle Care
In northern countries with very low
temperatures the factory filled coolant
provides frost protection down to approx.
-37 °C.
Caution
Only use approved antifreeze.
Coolant level
Caution
Too low a coolant level can cause engine
damage.
If the cooling system is cold, the coolant
level should be above the filling line mark.
{
Warning
Allow the engine to cool before opening
the cap. Carefully open the cap, relieving
the pressure slowly.
To top up use a 1:1 mixture of released
coolant concentrate mixed with clean tap
water. If no coolant concentrate is available,
use clean tap water. Install the cap tightly.
Have the coolant concentration checked and
have the cause of the coolant loss remedied
by a workshop.
Washer Fluid
Fill with clean water mixed with a suitable
quantity of washer fluid which contains
antifreeze.
Caution
.
Do not use washer fluid that contains
any type of water repellent coating.
This can cause the wiper blades to
chatter or skip, and also cause washer
nozzle clogging etc.
.
Do not use engine coolant (antifreeze)
in the windshield washer. It can
damage the windshield washer system
and paint.
.
Do not mix water with ready-to-use
washer fluid. Water can cause the
solution to freeze and damage the
washer fluid tank and other parts of
the washer system.
.
When using concentrated washer fluid,
follow the manufacturer instructions
for adding water.
.
Fill the washer fluid tank only
three-quarters full when it is very cold.
This allows for fluid expansion if
freezing occurs, which could damage
the tank if it is completely full.
