Protect from freezing and corrosion protection

Before the winter period, check the concentration of the coolant. Contents of antifreeze in the radiator should provide protection from freezing to about -28 ° C. Fig. 1.275. Check the

concentration of antifreeze

Fig. 1.276. Mess with the coolant

Too low concentration of antifreeze affects the protection against freezing and corrosion. If necessary, add antifreeze.

In the case of loss of coolant top up the water, check the concentration of antifreeze and if necessary, add antifreeze (Fig. 1.275).

The level of coolant

In a closed system, cooling losses are practically absent, so refilling the coolant is needed very rarely. The level of coolant in the compensating tank with cold cooling system should be slightly above the mark KALT / COLD. When warmed up to operating temperature the engine level rises, and when cooling is reduced again. If he falls below the mark, top up coolant should be a little above it. Before opening plugs allow the engine to cool down. Carefully open the tube to excessive pressure slowly fell, because otherwise there is a risk of burns. Top up the antifreeze. In the absence of antifreeze tuck system clean drinking water or distilled water as a substitute. After refueling drinking or distilled water, check the concentration of antifreeze and if necessary, add it. Eliminate the cause of loss of coolant. Position the plug and tighten it until it stops.

Coolant temperature

Illuminated the appropriate sensors on the instrument cluster shows the excess coolant temperature. Immediately check the coolant level.

The level of brake fluid

The level of brake fluid in the tank must be above MAX mark and below the MIN.

NOTICE Brake fluid is toxic. Keep it in the eyes, on skin, fabric and lacquered surfaces. Direct contact with the brake fluid can cause injury and damage.
