Coolant

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Capacity
Checking the coolant level
Replenishing
The coolant consists of water with coolant additive. This mixture guarantees anti-
freeze protection, protects the cooling/heater system against corrosion and pre-
vents lime formation.
Vehicles exported to countries with a mild climate are already factory-filled with
a coolant which offers antifreeze protection down to about -25 ℃. In these coun-
tries, the concentration of coolant additive should be at least 40%.
Vehicles exported to countries with a cold climate are already factory-filled with a
coolant which offers antifreeze protection down to about -35 °C. In these coun-
tries, the concentration of coolant additive should be at least 50%.
If a higher concentration of antifreeze is required for climatic reasons, the con-
centration of coolant additive can be increased up to a maximum of 60% (anti-
freeze protection down to approx. -40 °C).
When refilling, we only recommend you use the same antifreeze written on the
antifreeze expansion tank

CAUTION
The concentration of coolant additive in the coolant must never be under 40%.
Over 60% of coolant additive in the coolant reduces the antifreeze protection
and cooling effect.
Other coolant additives that do not comply with the correct specifications can
significantly reduce the corrosion protection.
Any faults resulting from corrosion may cause a loss of coolant and can conse-
quently result in major engine damage!
Do not fill the coolant above the mark
If a fault causes the engine to overheat, we recommend visiting a specialist ga-
rage, as otherwise serious engine damage may occur.
