the DANGER mark on the reser-
voir.

- use fluids approved by the manu- facturer, which fulfil DOT 4 stan-dards. Cooling system Use the fluid approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the tem- perature of the coolant is controlledby the engine fan. Because this fancan operate with the ignition keyremoved and because the coolingsystem is pressurised, wait for atleast one hour after the engine hasstopped before carrying out anywork. In the event of a breakdown and to avoid any risk of burns, slacken thecap to the first notch to release thepressure. When the pressure hasdropped, remove the cap and top upthe level.
