COOLANT CHECK & TOP-UP
DO NOT remove the reservoir cap when the cooling system is
hot - escaping steam or water could cause serious injury.
The coolant level should be checked weekly when the cooling
system is cold and with the car resting on level ground.
Remove the filler cap to check the level of the coolant. The level
marking can only be viewed through the filler neck.
If it is necessary to remove the filler cap before the system has fully
cooled, loosen the cap slowly, allowing the air pressure to escape
gradually before removing the cap completely.
If the level is below the ‘MAX’ mark, top-up with a 50% mix of
water and ethylene glycol based anti-freeze (containing no
methanol) with Organic Acid Technology (OAT) corrosion
inhibitors, meeting BTC coding type 4E.
NOTE: When topping-up, avoid spillage on body panels - anti-freeze
will damage painted surfaces.
If the coolant level falls appreciably during a short period, suspect
leakage or overheating and arrange for your dealer to examine the
car.
Ensure the cap is tightened fully after topping-up.
