Level of coolant
WARNING
Risk of scalding due to hot coolant!
The cooling system is under pressure after switching off the engine. The
coolant has heated up and expanded. When the fill opening is opened,
the pressure escapes and hot liquid can splash out. Severe scalding can
occur.
► Never open the fill opening when the engine is hot or the cooling sys-
tem is under pressure.
► Allow engine to cool sufficiently.
► Wear protective equipment.
NOTICE
Technical damage due to incorrect or insufficient coolant!
► Only use coolant with the correct specification. See tables for vehicle
fluids and filling quantities.
► The coolant should consist of equal parts of water and antifreeze
compound. This mixture ensures the best possible ratio between
cooling performance and anti-corrosion protection.
► Do not fill coolant too quickly. Fill in a maximum of five liters per
minute. If the coolant is added too quickly to the cooling system, air
bubbles can be trapped in the cooling system and cause engine
overheating.
