Cooling System
COOLANT CHECK AND TOP-UP
Cooling System
WARNING
NEVER remove the filler cap when the engine
is hot -escaping steam or scalding water
could cause serious personal injury.
Unscrew the filler cap slowly, allowing the
pressure to escape before removing
completely.
NEVER run the engine without coolant.
Anti-freeze will damage painted surfaces;
soak up any spillage with an absorbent cloth
immediately and wash the area with a
mixture of car shampoo and water.
NEVER top-up with salt water. When
travelling in territories where the water
supply contains salt, always ensure you carry
a supply of fresh (rain or distilled) water.
H2539
Avoid spilling anti-freeze onto a hot engine -
a fire may result.
Top-up with a 50% mixture of anti-freeze and
water so that the surface of the coolant is level
with the indicator on the side of the tank
(arrowed in illustration).
The coolant level in the expansion tank should
be checked at least weekly (more frequently in
high mileage or arduous operating conditions).
Always check the level WHEN THE SYSTEM IS
COLD.
Ensure the cap is tightened fully after top-up is
completed.
If the level has fallen appreciably, suspect
leakage or overheating and arrange for your
dealer to examine the vehicle. DO NOT
OVERFILL!
If it is necessary to remove the filler cap before
the system has fully cooled, loosen the cap
slowly, allowing the air pressure to escape
gradually.
