7.2 DRAINING COOLING SYSTEM
}
In order to avoid damaging the
cylinder block, do not top up a warm
engine with cold coolant. Coolant is
a toxic fluid and must be handled
with care. Protect skin and eyes.
Coolant is harmful to the
environment; after use, it should be
processed as industrial chemical
waste. When the coolant is hot, there
is overpressure in the cooling
system. When removing the filler
cap, allow the overpressure to
escape by first loosening the filler
cap one turn.
1.
Drain the cooling system at the cylinder
block via the drain cock (A) and the radiator
via the drain plug (B). If an integrated
retarder is fitted, remove the coolant drain
plug of the heat exchanger.
2.
Flush the cooling system.
3.
Close the drain cock (A) and fit the drain plug
(B) and, if applicable, the coolant drain plug
of the heat exchanger of the integrated
retarder.
4.
Fill the cooling system.
5.
Check the coolant level.
