Checks

The coolant level should be closeto the "MA X" mark but should never exceed it.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised, wait at least one hour after switching off the
engine before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.


Fluid specifi cation

The coolant must conform to the
m
anufacturer's recommendations. Th
e brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
