necessary, add coolant. The coolant type to be used is described in

the "Coolant system" chapter.

If the level is in order the failure may be due to the fan. In this case,

check the radiator fan fuse and replace, if necessary.

If the warning lamp does not go out even though the coolant level

is correct and the fan fuse is in order, d d o o n n o o t t d d r r i i v v e e o o n n . Call in expert

assistance.

If the trouble is located only in the radiator fan and the coolant

level is in order and temperature warning lamp is off – you may

drive on to the nearest Technical Service Centre. To make good use

of the air stream for cooling purposes, neither allow engine idle

nor drive very slowly.

The corresponding warning lamp is:

"ALTERNATOR WORKSHOP!"

The warning lamp lights up when switching on the ignition. It must

go out once the engine is switched on.

The alternator is driven by a long-life ribbed belt.

If the warning lamp comes on while driving, s s t t o o p p , , t t u u r r n n o o f f f f t t h h e e

e e n n g g i i n n e e and check ribbed belt.

If the belt is l l o o o o s s e e or broken, d d o o n n o o t t d d r r i i v v e e since the coolant pump

is no longer being driven. The belt must be checked or replaced.

If the warning lamp comes on even though the ribbed belt is not

broken or loose, one can proceed normally to the nearest Technical
