Topping up the coolant
Make sure that there is sufficient room for the coolant to expand when hot without overflow‐
ing.
1. Slowly open the cap on the coolant filler by a quarter to half of a turn to allow pressure to es‐
cape.
2. Then remove the filler cap completely.
3. Mix a quantity of coolant according to the table and top up to the mark.
The level should be between the marks.
4. Screw on the filler cap.
5. Reconnect the battery.
6. Start the engine and allow to idle for about 1 minute.
7. Stop the engine.
8. Check the coolant level.
Top up if the coolant level in the expansion tank has fallen.
