SPECIAL
INFORMATION

Adjusting
the
brake
pressure
regulator

The
Caravelle/Transporter is
fitted
with
a
pressure/load
sensitive brake pressure
regulator (brake pressure reducer) which li­
mits the brake pressure on the rear axle to
the set value. See also sticker on the end of
the
left
door below the lock. The regulator is
set
at the factory so
that
normally even after

fitting
a body, The brakes should work per­
fectly.

Only
in special
cases
when it is found during

a
road test
that
the braking effect on the rear

axle
is too low or too high, must the regula­
tor be reset by a Volkswagen dealer.

ROUTINE
CHECKS
WHEN
FILLING
THE TANKS
n order to ensure
that
your vehicle remains ready for the road at all
times between Inspections you should carry out a few checks reg-
jlarly
- preferably when filling the tank.
Attention

Take
particular
care
when
working
in the
engine
compartment
- see
page
95.

We
have listed the most important points to be checked here. How
to open the bonnet is explained on page 94. 1 -
Coolant
reservoir
(expansion
tank)

Attention
Do not
open
expansion
tank
when
engine
is hot -

danger
of scalding!
If the level is below the min. mark, top it up
with
coolant additive G 11 V 8 B and water - see page 101. When unavoidable plain water

can
be used temporarily.
2 -
Brake
fluid
reservoir

The fluid level must always be between the min. and max. marks

-see
page 104.
3 - Engine oil
level
Every
engine
uses
a certain amount of oil. If the level is too low it

can
lead to serious engine damage. For this reason the level must be checked regularly - see page 97.
4- Engine oil
filler
opening

The approved types of oil are given on page 96.
5 -
Windscreen
washer
container

Always
fill
with
water and a glass cleaner. Think about frost precau­
tions in winter.
6 -
Tyre

the pressures at least once a month. The pressures are given
on page 147 and on a sticker on the driver's door lock pillar. For
