Cleaning the cooling system
NOTICE
Fill the cooling system slowly. Otherwise the enclosed air may
not be able to escape fully. After filling, wait for three more min-
utes and top off fluid if required.
1. Slowly fill the cooling system with the cleaning agent.
(Observe the instructions by the manufacturer of the clean-
ing agent.)
2. Let the engine run with an open radiator cap for 5 minutes at
a coolant temperature of about 80 °C.

valve (1) to drain the cooling system completely.
Close the drain valve (1), and fill the cooling system slowly
with clean water.
4. Let the engine run for five minutes at a coolant temperature
of about 80 °C.

clean yet, flush the cooling system again until the draining
water is clean.
