The gauge indicates the temperature level of the engine coolant. The
red zone at 'H' indicates temperatures higher than normal.
Avoid driving, when the pointer is in the red zone. It indicates engine
overheating, which may be due to insufficient coolant in the radiator or
due to any other defect. Take the car to the nearest Authorised Service
outlet for necessary attention.
CAUTION CAUTIONCAUTION CAUTION

Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. It may spray hot
coolant on you causing serious injuries.
1. Ensure engine and radiator are cool.
2. Turn the radiator cap anti clockwise (without pressing it) until it
stops. This will relieve the pressure, if any in the cooling system.
3. Remove the radiator cap by pushing down and turning anti
clockwise.
4. The level of coolant should be upto the base of the filler neck.
Coolant should be added if it is low.
5. Secure the radiator cap in its place.
6. Add coolant into the auxiliary tank up to the high mark.
7. Put the cap back, on the auxiliary tank.

3. The complete cooling system should be drained (old coolant)
before refilling the system.
a. Remove radiator pressure cap
b. Drain the coolant from engine through the drain hole on
thermostat housing lower part. Drain coolant from radiator
through the radiator drain hole.
c. Refit the drain plugs on thermostat housing lower part and
the radiator.
d. Pour fresh water through the filler neck up to top and again
drain the water through the drain holes. This will ensure
removal of the old coolant from the system
e. After flushing out water, secure the drain plugs on radiator
and thermostat housing lower part properly with new
sealing washer.
f. Drain the auxiliary tank and refit the hoses.
4. Take the recommended coolant and water in 1:1 proportion
5. Carry out air evacuation and coolant filling on machine
( Vacuum filling)
( The machine setting to be done as follows,
Quantity to be filled: 6.1 lit approx, back pressure: 1.7 bar)
6. Fill the coolant in auxiliary tank up to “FIRST FILL / REFILL”
mark.

Manual Coolant refilling :
If the air evacuation and coolant filling (vacuum filling) system is
not available, then alternate procedure is as mentioned below.1. Follow sr. no 1 to 4 indicated in Air evacuation and coolant
filling ( Vacuum filling) procedure.
2. Refill the coolant (coolant and water as per recommendation)
through radiator filler neck.
3. When coolant level comes up to radiator filler neck, wait and
allow air bubbles to escape from the system for 2 to 5 min.
Top up coolant in radiator filler neck when level drops.
4. Fill the coolant in the auxiliary tank up to “FIRST FILL / REFILL”
mark.
5. Start the engine and run at idle for 10 min. with open radiator
filler neck. Allow air to escape from the system.Top up coolant
