Checking the coolant level
- Open the expansion tank filler cap and check the coolant level.
- Correct level:
- Cold engine: The coolant level must be approximately 50 mm below
the full line.
- Hot engine: The coolant level must be approximately 25 mm below
the full line.
- Other types of expansion tank according to the instructions of the fitter.
- Top up the coolant as necessary, see point 8.
Note:
When filling large amounts of coolant:
Never pour cold coolant into a hot engine.
This could crack the cylinder block and cylinder head.
Always top up with pre-mixed
coolant.
Open the cover carefully.
Water and steam may spray
out.
