mark, refit the cap and turn clockwise
until the tab on the cap engages a

detent and an audible click can be
heard.
NOTE: To maintain protection from
freezing damage and metal corro-
sion, use only an approved coolant
mixture (see 'Recommended Lubri-
cants' section for specification).
CAUTION: No other type of
coolant should be mixed with
the coolant type specified in the
recommended lubricants section
of this handbook, or degradation of
the cooling system may result.
CAUTION: Using an incorrect cool-
ant mixture may result in expen-
sive damage to the engine and/
or other components caused by
overheating, freezing or corrosive
effects. Such damage is not cov-
ered by the Vehicle Warranty.

Charge Cooler Expansion Tank
The charge cooler system coolant
circuit has a coolant reservoir mounted
on the forward left hand-side of the
engine bay, see item 1 on page 190.
Under normal circumstances It should
not be necessary to add any coolant.
It is recommended that this operation
is only carried out by your authorised
Lotus Retailer as part of the
recommended service schedule.
Steering Fluid Reservoir
The power assisted steering fluid res-
ervoir is located at the right hand cor-
ner of the engine bay, see item 6 on
page 190.
Under normal circumstances it should
not be necessary to add any fluid.
Because inspection of the fluid level
requires the removal of the right hand
rear wheelarch liner, it is recommended
that this operation is only carried out
by your authorised Lotus Retailer as
part of the recommended service
schedule.
