Coolant level
General information
Vehicles with gasoline engine feature two
cooling circuits. Always check the coolant lev‐
els of both coolant reservoirs and refill as

The coolant level is indicted using minimum
and maximum markings. Depending on the
coolant reservoir, the minimum and maximum
markings are located at different locations.
Depending on the engine installation, the cool‐
ant reservoir is located on the right side or the
left side of the engine compartment, refer to
page 288.
