Filling and level control of coolant
Before filling: prepare a mixture of anti-freeze and pure wa-
ter. Fill coolant through the filler neck in the expansion tank.
The expansion tank is accessible through the rear engine
cover. Fill slowly to avoid air pockets in the system.
The heater valves should be open and the heating system
turned on while filling.
On buses with roof-mounted air conditioning systems,
where the level of coolant is above the level in the expan-
sion tank, the coolant must be pumped up by starting the
system’s circulation pump.
Gradually top up through the expansion tank until the cool-
ing system is completely full. Check the coolant level after
running the engine warm.
It should be between the MAX and MIN markings on the
expansion tank.
Use the same mixture when topping up. Never fill with cold
coolant in a warm engine! The difference in temperature
may fracture the engine.
A continuous check of the coolant level is carried out while
driving using the coolant level warning light.
