Level check
All models, except models with manual gearbox with air conditioning
Make sure the coolant level in the reservoir is between the marks «MIN» And «MAX», when the engine is cold.
Top up the coolant level if necessary.
Models with manual gearbox with air conditioning
Make sure the coolant level in the reservoir is between the marks «MIN» AND «MAX», when the engine is cold.
If the coolant level is too high or too low, top up.
Leak Check
All models, except models with manual gearbox with air conditioning
Pressurize the cooling system with a pump to check for leaks (suitable tool) and adapter (special tool).
Test pressure: 157 kPa (1.6 kg/cm2)
Caution: Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. High-pressure coolant splashing out of the radiator can cause severe burns.
Attention: Pressure higher than specified may cause damage to the radiator.
Note: If the coolant level is low, add coolant to the radiator.
If abnormalities are found, correct defects or replace damaged components.
Models with manual gearbox with air conditioning
To check for leaks, attach the adapter to the tank, then connect it to the pump.
Warm up the engine and turn it off.
Pressurize the cooling system and stop pumping.
Test pressure: 90 kPa (0.92 kg/cm2)
If pressure drops, check for leaks.
Slowly unscrew the adapter from the tank, relieve pressure in the cooling system and replace the cap.
Caution: Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. HIGH PRESSURE COOLANT LIQUID splashing out of the radiator can cause severe burns.
Attention: Pressure higher than specified may cause damage to the radiator.
