Warning!
Risk of scalding from hot coolant.
f Take great care when opening the cap of the
expansion tank when the engine is hot.
1. Remove cover.
2. If the engine is hot, cover the expansion tank
cap with a cloth.
Open cap carefully and allow any overpressure
to escape.
Then unscrew cap completely.
3. Read the coolant level.
Top up with coolant if necessary.
Only add a mixture of antifreeze and water in
equal parts.
Antifreeze share in coolant:
50 % provides antifreeze protection down to
–35 °C.
Do not exceed the max. mark.
Note on operation

when the engine is hot, check the coolant level
again when the engine is cold.
4. Screw the cap closed firmly and put on the
cover.
5. Have the cooling system checked.
