Do not pour coolant into beverage containers. | |
Topical note | Notes on coolant | ||
| Check | ||
1 | Unscrew cap of expansion reservoir | ||
2 | Check coolant level | Check and correct the coolant level only when the coolant temperature is between 0 °C and 20 °C. | |
3 | Check anticorrosion/antifreeze protection | To do so, drain coolant from radiator drain screw if required. | |
In case of insufficient anticorrosion and antifreeze protection | |||
| |||
Correct corrosion and antifreeze protection subject to separate repair order. | |||
For filling capacity, see information from body manufacturer. | |||
