he vapours and the scalding liquids that
come from the cooling system while
boiling can explode and cause serious
burns. They are under pressure, and if
the surge tank cover is opened even
partially, the vapours may be expelled
at high speed. Never remove the surge
tank cover while the engine and the
cooling system are hot. If it is necessary
to remove the surge tank cover, wait for
the engine to cool down.

The long life additive for the cooling
system is poisonous and must be
carefully handled.
Note
I
n order to avoid damages to the vehicle and
make the starting easier when the engine is
hot (due to the fuel evaporation), the engine
vent system may be actuated even after
the vehicle disconnection for agiven period,
depending on the room temperature and the
engine temperature.

Washer Fluid
What to Use
When windshield washer fluid is needed, be
sure to read the manufacturer's instructions
before use. If operating the vehicle in an
area where the temperature may fall below
freezing, use afluid that has sufficient
protection against freezing.

Caution
•
D
o not use washer fluid that contains
any type of water repellent coating. This
can cause the wiper blades to chatter
or skip.
•
Do not use engine coolant (antifreeze)
in the windshield washer. It can
damage the windshield washer system
and paint.
•
Do not mix water with ready-to-use
washer fluid. Water can cause the
solution to freeze and damage the
washer fluid tank and other parts of
the washer system.
•
When using concentrated washer fluid,
follow the manufacturer instructions for
adding water.
•
Fill the washer fluid tank only three-
quarters full when it is very cold. This
allows for fluid expansion if freezing
occurs, which could damage the tank if it
is completely full.
