Engine coolant
Introduction
WARNING
Engine coolant is toxic!
●
Only keep engine coolant in its original
container, tightly shut and in a saf
e place.
●
Never store engine coolant in empty food
containers or bottles as other people may
accidentally drink it.
●
Always keep engine coolant out of reach
of children.
●
Ensure that the proportion of engine
coolant additive corresponds to the lowest
outside temperature to which the vehicle
will be exposed.
●
If the outside temperature is extremely
low, the engine coolant could freeze caus-
ing the vehicle to stop. As this would also
cause the heating to stop working, passen-
gers without warm clothing could freeze.
For the sake of the environment
Coolants and additives can contaminate
the environment. Collect any spilt fluids in
suit
able containers and dispose of them in
accordance with legislation and with the
utmost respect for the environment.
