Checking

 Danger!

Risk of injury to skin and eyes caused by scalding from contact with hot coolant spray. Risk of poisoning caused by swallowing coolant.

Do not open cooling system unless coolant temperature is below 90°C. Open cap slowly and release the pressure. Do not pour coolant into beverage containers.

Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses.

1

Unscrew the cap of the coolant expansion reservoir (1)

 Unscrew cap slowly and relieve excess pressure.

2

Check engine coolant level and antifreeze content of coolant and correct if necessary

 If the antifreeze share of the coolant is too small, either antifreeze must be added or the coolant must be replaced: 

Drain coolant, fill.
