Fuel
Octane rating: UNLEADED fuel - 95 RON minimum..............................
CAUTION: Catalyst equipped vehicles MUST NOT be run on LEADED fuel as damage to the catalyst
will result.
Brake/Clutch Fluid
For topping-up Rover recommend the use of AP
New Premium Super DOT 4 brake fluid or Castrol
Universal DOT 4 brake/clutch fluid.
Anti-freeze solutions
The overall anti-freeze concentration should not fall,
by volume below 30% to ensure that the
anti-corrosion properties of the coolant are
maintained. Anti-freeze concentrations greater than
60% are not recommended as cooling efficiency will
be impaired.
Use UNIPART SUPERPLUS 3 ANTI-FREEZE AND
SUMMER COOLANT to protect the cooling system.
If this is not available, use an ethylene glycol based
anti-freeze, containing no methanol with
non-phosphate corrosion inhibitors suitable for use
in mixed metal engines to ensure the protection of
the cooling system against frost and corrosion.
CAUTION: No other ’universal’ anti-freeze
should be used with UNIPART
SUPERPLUS 3 ANTI-FREEZE AND
SUMMER COOLANT.
The cooling system should be drained, flushed and
refilled with the correct amount of anti-freeze
solution at three years and every two years
thereafter.
After filling with anti-freeze solution, attach a warning
label to a prominent position on the vehicle stating
the type of anti-freeze contained in the cooling
system to ensure that the correct type is used for
topping-up.
The recommended quantities of anti-freeze for
different degrees of frost protection are:
