If the cooling system is cold, the
coolant level should be above the
filling line mark. Top-up if the level is low.
9 Warning
Allow the engine to cool before
opening the cap. Carefully open
the cap, relieving the pressure
slowly.
To top-up, use a 1:1 mixture of
approved coolant concentrate mixed
with clean tap water. If no coolant
concentrate is available, use clean
tap water. Install the cap tightly.
Engine B16DTH: After starting the
engine, set the heating to warmest
temperature and the fan speed to at
least first level for approx. five
minutes. This will ensure that the air
within the cooling system escapes.
Have the coolant concentration
checked and have the cause of the
coolant loss remedied by a workshop.
Power steering fluidCaution
Extremely small amounts of
contamination can cause steering
system damage and cause it to not work properly. Do not allow
contaminates to contact the fluid
side of the reservoir cap/dipstick or
from entering the reservoir.
Power steering fluid level normally
does not have to be checked. If an
unusual noise sounds during steering or the power steering reacts
unusually, seek the assistance of a workshop.
