Coolant
The glycol-based coolant provides
excellent corrosion protection for the
heating a nd cooling systems as well as
anti-freeze protection down to approx.
-28 °C. It remains in the cooling system
throughout the year and need not be
changed.
Use of certain anti-freezes can lead to
engine damage. We therefore recommend
that you use only approved anti-freezes.
Anti-freeze and corrosion protection
Have your coolant replaced at the correct
concentration by a workshop at the start of
the winter.
The frost protection must ensure anti-
freeze protection down to approx. -28 °C.
Too low a concentration of anti-freeze will
reduce frost protection and corrosion
protection. If required, top up anti-freeze.
If coolant loss is topped up with water,
have concentration checked and add
anti-freeze if necessary.
Coolant level
Hardly any losses occur since the cooling
system is sealed and it is thus rarely
necessary to top up the coolant.
The coolant should be a little a bove the
KALT / COLD mark in the expansion tank
with a cold cooling system. The coolant
level can also be read off from the outside
of the exp ansion tank.
When the engine is at op erating
temperature, coolant level rises. It falls
again when the system cools. If it falls
below the KALT / COLD mark when the
system is cold, top up to the mark.
Top up anti-freeze. If no anti-freeze is
available, top up with clean tap water.
If tap water is unavailable, distilled water
can be used.
When you top up with tap water or distilled
water, add concentrated anti-freeze and
possibly mix in a nti-freeze as well. Have the
reason for the loss of coolant rectified by a
workshop.
Too low a coolant level can cause engine
damage.
To close, position the cap and screw it into
place.
9 Warning
Anti-freeze is a danger to health; it must
therefore be kept in the original container
and out of the reach of children.
9 Wa rn ing
Allow engine to cool down before
removing c oolant filler cap. Remove filler
cap carefully so that pressure can escape
slowly, otherwise there is a risk of
sca ld ing.
