NOTICE
• Adding water instead of coolant lowers the
antifreeze content of the coolant. If water is
used instead of coolant check, and if nec-
essary, correct the antifreeze concentra-
tion of the coolant.
• Use only distilled water. However, if dis-
tilled water is not available, soft water may
be used.
3. Start the engine, warm it up for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
4. Check:
• Coolant level
TIP
Before checking the coolant level, wait a few
minutes until it settles.
