When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
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 the risk of scalding when you need to
top up in an emergency, place a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the coolant.The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Fluid specification

AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It should be stored in
a cool place and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once
it has completely thawed out at ambient
temperature.
Never keep AdBlue
® containers in your
vehicle.
Procedure
In cold weather, before per forming the top-up,
ensure that the temperature is above -11°C.
Otherwise the AdBlue
