ies of water otherwise this will damage the environment.
IMPORTANT!
Engine damage caused by excessive temperature difference!
When refilling with cold coolant in an engine at operating temperature there is a risk of en
gine damage caused by excessive temperature difference.
For this reason:
S Do not fill with cold coolant.

ticorrosion agent.
Only use approved fluids and lubricants (see “Fluids and Lubricants ..." publication).

filler neck.

rect.
3. Reinstall cap.
4. Let engine run for a short period and then
recheck coolant level.
