Engine Coolant (Petrol models)
Removing the radiator cap
while the engine is hot can
cause the coolant to spray
out, seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and
radiator cool down before
removing the radiator cap.
1. Make sure the engine and radiator
are cool.

2. Relieve any pressure in the cooling
system by turning the radiator cap
anticlockwise, without pressing
down.
3. Remove the radiator cap by
pushing down and turning
anticlockwise.
4. The coolant level should be up to
the base of the filler neck. Add
coolant if it is low.
Pour the coolant slowly and
carefully so you do not spill any.
Clean up any spills immediately; it
could damage components in the
engine compartment.
5. Put the radiator cap back on, and
tighten it fully.
