Checking the coolant level

On vehicles with a closed cooling system, periodic topping up of fluid is not required. A rapid drop in the coolant level and frequent topping up indicate a leak and need to be repaired. Check the condition of the radiator, hoses and connections for signs of leakage.

Top up with antifreeze solution only. Adding water is not recommended due to lowering the freezing point of the mixture.

1. On a cold engine, the level should be above the KALT/COLD mark on the reservoir.



2. If it is necessary to add liquid, then wait for the engine to cool completely and unscrew the tank cap.



3. Add fluid up to the MAX mark on the reservoir and tighten the cap.
