Combustion engine coolant

14007_BJAPH2_009_1_image.jpeg

With the ignition off and the vehicle on horizontal ground, the level when cold must be between the "MINI" and "MAXI" marks on the coolant reservoir 1.

Top this level up when cold before it reaches the "MINI" mark.

Frequency of checking coolant level

Check the coolant level regularly (very severe damage is likely to be caused to the combustion engine if it runs out of coolant).

If the level needs to be topped up, only use products approved by our Technical Department which ensure:

  • antifreeze protection;
  • anti-corrosion protection of the cooling system.
warning

Before carrying out any action in the engine compartment, you must switch off the ignition Ignition-starter switch on a vehicle with key or Ignition-starter switch on a vehicle with card.

This system is different to that of the combustion engine.

It is used for cooling the electric motor.

Reading the level

With the ignition off and the vehicle parked on level ground, unscrew the coolant reservoir cap 2.

When cold , the level should be located between the "MINI" 3 and "MAXI" 4 marks shown on the inside of the funnel.

Frequency of checking coolant level

Check the coolant level regularly (very severe damage is likely to be caused to the electrical circuit if it runs out of coolant).

If a top-up is required, you must contact an approved dealer to perform the top-up.
