Diesel engine
It is  important to  note that  whilst an
increase in  the concentration  of anti
freeze gives an increase in the level of
frost protection, a solution which is in
excess of 65% anti freeze will result in
reduced  frost protection  and engine
overheating.   Therefore  the  recom-
mended concentration of 50% should
not be exceeded for general use.
The use of methanol based anti freeze
compounds may result in engine over-
heating and will invalidate the vehicle
warranty.

Engine Coolant Level
The  engine coolant level may be ob-
served through the side of the plastic
coolantreservoir(expansiontank)when
the engine is cold. If the level is below
the "LOW"  mark, add  coolant of  the
correct concentration until the level is
betweenthe"LOW"and"Full"marks.If

alloy  engine components  should  be
used in the cooling system. No further
additives or inhibitors should be used.
The coolant specific gravity should be
checked as prescribed in the mainte-
nance schedule  to ensure  adequate
frost and corrosion protection. In addi-
tion, the  engine coolant  must be  re-
placed at the  specified interval since
the corrosion inhibitor properties dete-
riorate with time.
NOTE:

To Change the engine Coolant
It is imperative  that vehicles fitted
withanairconditioningsystemhave
a coolant concentration of the rec-
ommendedstrengthatalltimes.The
use of the air  conditioning system
when the  cooling  system is  filled
with  water  only will  result  in  the
heater matrix  freezing and  subse-
quentlybursting.
Theenginecoolantshouldbechanged
at those intervals specified  in the ve-
hiclemaintenancescheduleinSection
5.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to ensure that
coolant is not allowed to spill onto
the paintwork since the finish may
become damaged.  If coolant spill-
ageoccurs,theaffectedareashould
be rinsed thoroughly with water.
