Door Locks
The onset of winter conditions subject
motor vehicles to greater operating
demands. Therefore, the following
suggestions will assist in maintaining
peak performance and reliability dur-
ing these periods:
The cooling system must always con-
tain an Ethylene-Glycol based anti-
freeze solution. The system is filled
during manufacture with solution of
the correct strength which should be
checkedbeforetheonsetofwinterand
adjusted or changed as required.
Should the door lock mechanism be-
comefrozen,aproprietarylockde-icer
should be used.
Never attempt to thaw a frozen door
lock using hot water, since the water
will eventually freeze and compound
the problem.

Electrical System
NOTE:
The anti-freeze solution contains a
corrosion inhibitor to prevent deg-
radation of the aluminium castings
contained within the engine. There-
fore, never, drain the system and
refill with water only.

Windscreen Washers & Wipers
Winter conditions impose severe de-
mandsuponvehicleelectricalsystems,
particularly the charging circuit. The
battery condition and performance
along with the alternator performance
and drive belt condition should be
checked prior to the onset of winter.
The windscreen washer bottle should
be filled with a solution of water and a
proprietary winter screen wash addi-
tive. The windscreen wipers should
not be used if the blades are frozen to
the windscreen or if they are covered
with snow, before this is removed.
In addition, anti-freeze solution must
ALWAYS be used in vehicles fitted
with air conditioning, to prevent the
heater matrix from freezing and sub-
sequently bursting with the refrigera-
tion system in use.
NOTE:
Never allow undiluted screen
washer fluid additive to spill upon
the paintwork or use engine cool-
ant anti-freeze since damage to the
paintwork may result.
