REMOU NT I NG
Perform the dismounting operations in the reverse order.
Tighten the screws and nuts to the required moment.
Perform: -filling and purging of the cooling circuit (see chapter 19”Filling a nd purging”);
-f illing with oil of the engine and gearbox;
-f illing of the power steering circuit (see chapter 05 “ Draining-Filling)- for vehicles
equipped with power steering;
-filling of the air conditioning circuit with refrigerant fluid HFC 134a (see chapter 62 “Air
conditioning”). Adjust the clutch pedal stroke (see chapter 37”Clutch control adjustment”).
REMARK:
At each operation implying battery dismounting, when reconnecting the battery,
introduce the radio code, which is written on the vehicle-purchasing invoice.
