4.11.2.4.1 Bleeding of the system
In this section, the bleeding process of the liquid cooling system is described. Ensure the
electrical system is switched OFF and the High Voltage batteries have been removed. When
bleeding the liquid cooling system, avoid spilling water onto the electrical system. Also, ensure
that all the pipes and fittings have been connected into the correct positions and are sealing
correctly.
The liquid system is sensitive to changes in ambient temperature. To avoid freezing of the
coolant, it is advised to add an “anti-freeze” (Propylene Glycol is preferred) to the liquid
system. Mixing ratios are indicated in this section. When in ambient temperature is always
above 0°C, no mixed coolant in required.
