Frequency of checking coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly
(very severe damage is likely to be
caused to the 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:
– protection against freezing;
– an anti-corrosion protection for the
cooling system.
Levels
engine coolant
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
No operations should be
carried out on the cooling
circuit when the engine is
hot.
Risk of burns.
Replacement interval
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle.
Coolant level
With the engine switched off and on
level ground, the level when cold must
be between the MINI and MAXI marks
on reservoir 1.
Top this level up when cold before it
reaches the MINI mark.
LEVELS (1/3)
1
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in the park position.
Risk of injury.

Jaune NoirNoir texte
On the road POSSIBLE CAUSESACTION REQUIRED
White smoke from the exhaust. This is not necessarily a fault. Smoke
may be caused by regeneration of the
particle filter.Refer to the information on “Special fea-
tures of diesel versions” in Section 2.
Vibrations. Tyres not inflated to correct pressures,
incorrectly balanced or damaged.Check the tyre pressures. If this is not the
problem, have them checked by an ap
-
proved Dealer.
Coolant boiling in the coolant reservoir. Mechanical fault: cylinder head gasket
blown, faulty coolant pump.Stop the engine.

Jaune NoirNoir texte
On the road POSSIBLE CAUSESACTION REQUIRED
Steering becomes heavy. – assistance overheating, Leave to cool.
– weak or dead battery. Recharge or replace the battery.
The engine overheats. The coolant tem-
perature warning light comes on (or the
indicator needle is in the red area). Coolant pump: belt stretched or broken.
Engine cooling fan not working.
Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine
and contact an approved Dealer.
Coolant leaks. Check the condition of hoses and clips.
Check the coolant reservoir: it should
contain fluid. If it does not, top it up (once
it has cooled) . Take care not to scald
yourself. This action is only temporary;
consult your approved Dealer as soon as
possible.
OPERATING FAULTS (6/8)
Radiator: if there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by our Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
