Advice
●
Ensur
e that the proportion of engine cool-
ant additive corresponds to the lowest out-
side temperature to which the vehicle will be
exposed.
●
If the outside temperature is extremely low,
the engine coolant could freeze causing the
vehicle to stop. As this would also cause the
heating t
o stop working, passengers without
warm clothing could freeze.
For the sake of the environment
Coolants and additives can contaminate the
en
vir
onment. Collect any spilt fluids in suita-
ble containers and dispose of them in accord-
ance with legislation and with the utmost re-
spect f
or the environment.
