Danger!

Danger of swallowing antifreeze when handling it! ☞ Seek medical attention immediately if antifreeze has been swallowed ☞ Keep antifreeze out of reach of children

Information on inspection and cleaning work on the cooling system

Dirt on the radiator fins reduces the radiator’s heat dissipation capacity! • Check the radiator once a day for dirt and clean it if necessary. Refer to the maintenance plan for the intervals • In dusty or dirty work conditions, clean more frequently than indicated in the maintenance plan • An insufficient coolant level reduces the heat dissipation capacity and can lead to engine damage! • Check the coolant level at regular intervals. Refer to the maintenance plan for the intervals –see Maintenance plan overview on page3-5 • If the coolant must be replace frequently, have the cooling system checked for leaks by an authorised workshop!
