Check to see if coolant is visible in the
power electronics and charger
modules coolant reservoir. If coolant
is visible but the coolant level is below
the cold fill line, there could be a leak
in the cooling system.
If the coolant level is too low, seek the
assistance of a workshop.

Engine overheating

The vehicle has an indicator to warn
of engine overheating.
If the decision is made not to lift the
bonnet when this warning appears,
seek the assistance of a workshop
immediately.
If the decision is made to lift the
bonnet, make sure the vehicle is
parked on a level surface.
Then check to see if the engine
cooling fans are running. If the engine
is overheating, the fans should be
running. If they are not running, do not
continue to drive the vehicle and have
it serviced by a workshop.

Washer fluid

An error message will appear on the
Driver Information Centre (DIC) when

use. If operating the vehicle in an area
where the temperature may fall below

protection against freezing.

antifreeze concentration provides
protection at low temperatures or
