WARNING
The engine compartment of your car is a hazardous area. While working in
■
the engine compartment, be sure to observe the following warn-
ings » page 206.
Do not continue your journey, if for some reason it is not possible to top
■
up the coolant under the prevailing conditions! Switch off the engine and seek
assistance from a specialist garage.
CAUTION
The amount of coolant additive in the coolant must never be allowed to be less
■
than 40 %.
Over 60 % of coolant additive in the coolant reduces the antifreeze protection
■
and coolant effectiveness.
Other coolant additives that do not comply with the correct specifications can
■
significantly reduce the anticorrosion effect.
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.
