To avoid burns do not remove the radiator cap or try to change the liquid when
the engine is still hot. Wait until it cools down.
if liquid falls on the tires it makes them more slippery and can cause an accident.
immediately clean any liquid that may fall into the chassis, engine or wheels.
inspect the old liquid. White spots on the liquid will mean that the aluminium
parts of the cooling system are corroded. if the liquid is brown it is because the steel
or iron parts of the system are rusted. in both cases clean the system.
Tighten the drain screw on the water pump to 9 nm. Replace the gaskets with
new ones.
check for any damage, loss or lack of seals in the cooling system.
cold countries should adjust the antifreeze capacity to their minimum temperature
with a margin of -5ºc.
