If there is no danger of freezing:
-Only Scania Corrosion Inhibitor should be used in the coolant as
protection against corrosion. The correct concentration of anti-corrosive
is 7-12% by volume and this must never drop below 7% by volume. The
inhibitor in Scania Corrosion Inhibitor is free of nitrite.
- First filling: Fill up the system with water + 10% by volume Scania
Corrosion Inhibitor. Use drinking water with a pH of 6 - 9.
- Never top up with only water or only anti-corrosive! Fluid losses must
always be replaced with blended coolant:
water + 10% Scania Corrosion Inhibitor by volume.
Coolant filter (not standard equipment)
Only coolant filter without inhibitor may be used. The use of coolant filters
increases the life of the coolant and reduces the risk of deposition corrosion.
12. Checking the fuel level (see page 40).
15. Checking the electrolyte level in batteries (see page 42).
16. Checking the state of charge in batteries (see page 42).
18. Checking the coolant level monitor (see page 43).
19. Checking the temperature monitor (see page 44).
20. Checking the oil pressure monitor (see page 45).
21. Checking transmission tension (see page 46).
Ethylene glycol and corrosion
inhibitor are
toxic if ingested.
Avoid contact with the skin.
Immobilise the starting device
when working on the engine.
If the engine starts out of
control, there is a
SERIOUS RISK
OF INJURY.
Overdosing with Scania
Corrosion Inhibitor and mixing
with glycol can cause sludge to
be formed.
If a coolant filter has been fitted
it must not contain inhibitor.
