COOLING SYSTEM
Filling and bleeding
There is continuous circulation in the heater matrices.
FILLING
It is essential to open the two bleed screws at the
top of the radiator and the cylinder head coolant
pipe housing outlet.
Fill the circuit through the expansion bottle opening.
Close the bleed screws as soon as the liquid starts to
flow in a continuous stream.
Start the engine (2 500 rpm).
Adjust the level by overflow for a period of about
4 minutes.
Close the bottle.
BLEEDING
Allow the engine to run for about 20 minutes at
2 500 rpm, until the engine fans(s) operate (time
necessary for automatic degassing).
Check the liquid level is at the "Maximum" marker.
DO NOT OPEN THE BLEED SCREWS WHILST THE
ENGINE IS RUNNING.
REFIT THE EXPANSION BOTTLE CAP WHILE THE
ENGINE IS WARM.
