Filling and venting the cooling system
Danger:
There is a risk of burns and scalding.
During filling, the cooling system is to be vented by
means of the threaded vent plugs
Â
on the liquid−-
cooled exhaust turbochargers and on the exhaust
manifold.
Case 1: Engine installed inclined toward the
flywheel side
(The threaded vent plugs
Â
are positioned below
the coolant level in the expansion tank
À
)
1. Unscrew the threaded vent plugs
Â
.
2. Fill the coolant slowly through the filler neck of
the expansion tank
Á
, until coolant emerges
from the threaded vent plugs without bubbles.
3. Screw threaded vent plugs
Â
back in and screw
on cap
Á
all the way, but do not tighten yet.
Caution:
Overtightened caps can not be opened
again.
4. Let the engine run at a speed of 1200 rpm for
approx. 15 minutes
5. Shut down the engine.
