Adding, cooling system
WARNING!
Do not open the coolant filler cap (1)
when the engine is warm. Steam or hot coolant
can squirt out as pressure is released.
NOTE!
Do not open the pressure cap.
1. Open the filler cap (1).
NOTE!
Use only Volvo Penta recommended coolant
and mixtures.
2. Mix the correct amount of coolant ahead of time
(see the table below) so that it can be assured
that the system has been filled.
Filling must not be done so quickly that air
pockets form in the system. Air must be given the
chance to flow out through the filler opening and
drain valves.
When adding coolant, the coolant level should be
between the MIN and MAX markings.
3. Start the engine when the cooling system has
been bled of air and filled completely. If there is a
heater attached to the engine’s cooling system
the heater control valve should be opened and the
unit should also be bled of air during filling.
4. Stop the engine after approximately 1 hour, check
the coolant level and add coolant as needed.
