Fluid level checks
Note: In an emergency - and only if the
approved antifreeze is unavailable - top-up the
cooling system with clean water, but be aware
of the resultant reduction in frost protection.
Do not top-up or refill with conventional
antifreeze formulations. If in doubt consult a
qualified technician.
The specific gravity of a 50% antifreeze
solution at 20°C (68°F) is 1.068 and protects
against frost down to -40°C (-40°F).
BRAKE/CLUTCH FLUID CHECK
Seek qualified assistance
immediately if brake pedal travel is
unusually long or if there is any
significant loss of brake fluid. Driving
under such conditions could result in
extended stopping distances or
complete brake failure.
Ensure the cap is tightened fully after top-up is
completed by turning the cap until the ratchet
cap clicks.
COOLANT ANTIFREEZE
Antifreeze is poisonous and can be
fatal if swallowed - keep containers
sealed and out of the reach of
children. If accidental consumption is
suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.
Brake fluid is highly toxic - keep
containers sealed and out of the reach
of children. If accidental consumption
of fluid is suspected, seek medical
attention immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
Brake fluid is highly inflammable. Do
not allow brake fluid to come into
contact with naked flames or other
sources of ignition (e.g. a hot engine).
The use of non-approved antifreeze will
have an adverse effect on the engine
cooling system and therefore engine
durability.
Do not drive the vehicle with the fluid
level below the MIN mark.
Antifreeze 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.
If the quantity of fluid in the brake
reservoir drops below the
recommended level, a red warning
lamp in the instrument panel will illuminate.
Antifreeze contains important corrosion
inhibitors. The antifreeze content of the coolant
must be maintained at 50% ± 5% all year round
(not just in cold conditions). To ensure that the
anti-corrosion properties of the coolant are
retained, the antifreeze content should be
checked once a year and completely renewed
every ten years, regardless of distance
Note: If the warning lamp illuminates while the
vehicle is being driven, stop the vehicle as soon
as safety permits by gently applying the brakes.
Check and top-up the fluid level if necessary.
With the vehicle on level ground, check the
fluid level at least every week (more frequently
in high mileage or arduous operating
conditions).
travelled. Failure to do so may cause corrosion
of the radiator and engine components.
