Do not work on the cooling system unless
you are familiar with the task, aware of the
general saf

ety procedures and have the cor-
rect equipment, service fluids and suitable
tools. Failing to carry out work correctly can

WARNING
Insufficient anti-freeze in the cooling sys-

drive to break down and thereby cause se-
rious injuries.
x The amount of correct coolant additive
used must be sufficient for the lowest
ambient temperature that you expect
the vehicle to be exposed to.
x Coolant can freeze at extremely cold
outside temperatures, causing the vehi-
cle to break down. Vehicle occupants
with inadequate winter clothing could
then freeze to death as the heating will
also no longer function. NOTICE
Never mix genuine coolant additives with
other coolants that ha
ve not been approved
by Volkswagen.
x If the liquid in the coolant expansion tank
is not pink (colouring results from mixing
the purple coolant additive with distilled
water) but for example brown instead of
purple, the suitable coolant has been
mixed with an unsuitable coolant additive.
The coolant must be changed as soon as
possible if this is the case. Failure to ob-
serve this warning can result in serious
malfunctions or damage to the electric
drive and cooling system. Coolant and coolant additives can pol-
