If the coolant level is above the mark
If the coolant level is below the mark
Checking the level
Switch off the engine.
Open the bonnet.
Check the level of coolant in the coolant expansion bottle.
Check the coolant level only when the engine is cold.
If the engine is warm, the test result may be inaccurate. The level can also be
above the mark

A
If the coolant level in the coolant expansion tank is too low, this is indicated by
the warning light
lighting up in the instrument cluster
We still recommend inspecting the coolant level directly at the reservoir from
time to time.
Loss of coolant
A loss of coolant is first and foremost an indication of a leak in the system. Do
not merely top up the coolant. Have the cooling system checked by a specialist
garage.
Replenishing
Read and observe
and
Only top up with new coolant.
Switch off the engine.
Allow the engine to cool.
Place a cloth over the cap of the coolant expansion tank and unscrew the
cap carefully.
Replenish the coolant.
Turn the cap until it clicks into place.
Do not use an alternative additive if the specified coolant is not available in an
emergency. In this case, use just water and have the correct mixing ratio of
water and coolant additive restored by a specialist garage as soon as possible.
