CAUTION■If the expansion tank is empty, do not top up with coolant. The system could
aerate - There is a risk of engine damage!  Stop driving! Switch off the en-
gine and seek assistance from a specialist garage.■
Do not fill the coolant above the mark
A
» Fig. 162 . The coolant could, when
heated, be expelled from the cooling system - There is a risk of damage to the
engine parts.
■
If it is not possible to add coolant, 
stop driving! Switch off the engine and
seek assistance from a specialist garage.
■
A coolant additive which does not correspond to the correct specification can
reduce the anti-corrosion effect of the cooling system - risk of damage to the
cooling system and the engine.
■
If non-distilled (non-demineralised) water has been used to top up, the cool-
ant should be replaced by a specialist garage - There is a risk of engine dam-
age.
■
A loss of coolant indicates leaks in the cooling system -There is a risk of en-
gine damage. Top up with coolant and then seek assistance from a specialist
garage.
Note
Too low coolant level is indicated in the instrument cluster by the warning
light  and shown by the message » page 32. We still recommend inspecting
the coolant level directly at the reservoir from time to time.
