OTE: Make sure the coolant su
pply valve is in the closed
position on the vacuum filler gauge assembly.
• NOTE: The coolant vacuum fill t ool needs an air pressure of 6
to 8 bar (87 to 116 psi) to operate correctly.
• NOTE: Small diameter or long airlines may restrict airflow to
the coolant vacuum fill tool. Open the air supply valve.

13 .
NOTE
: Make sure the coolant supply hose is positioned
into a container of fifty perc ent mixture of Jaguar Premium
Cooling System Fluid or eq uivalent, meeting Jaguar
specification WSS M97B44-D an d fifty percent water. Make
sure no air can enter the coolant supply hose.
