Check coolant level
Proceed only with engine not running and at low temperature to avoid
any risk of burns.
q With the engine at low temperature, make sure that the fluid level
in the expansion tank is above the minimum level.
q Visually check that the fluid level is not more than 2/3 of the height
of the tank in order to enable any increase in volume of the fluid
caused by the temperature increase.
q Top up the tank if necessary,
using clean water. Do not use
distilled water; see the table
REFUELLING.
Note: If the refill operations occur
frequently a diagnosis of the cooling
circuit is necessary.
In the event that only the heat exchanger without the expansion tank
is available on the vehicle, refill it if necessary, paying attention that the
fluid does not saturate the internal volume of the exchanger in order
to enable any increase in volume of the fluid caused by the
temperature increase.
Clean heat exchangers
Check that the radiator air inlets are free from dirt (dust, mud, straw,
etc.).
Clean them if necessary, using compressed air or steam.
CAUTION!
When the engine is warm, a pressure liable to cause hot
liquid to be expelled with extreme violence is created
within the cooling circuits. This results in a danger of
burning.

CAUTION!
The use of compressed air makes it necessary to use
suitable protective equipment for the hands, face and
eyes. Please see the prescriptions in the paragraph on
ACCIDENT PREVENTION.
