Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up this fluid
between services.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan. The coolant level should be close to the "MA X"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top up.
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
In wintry conditions, it is recommended that you
use an ethyl alcohol or methanol based fluid.
Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
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. When the engine is hot, 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 in the event of an
urgent need to top up, with a cloth around the
cap, unscrew it by two turns to allow the pressure
to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap
and top up the level.
To ensure that the measurement is reliable, the
vehicle must be parked on level ground and the
engine must be cold.
