IMPORTANT:
Lifetime coolant filling:
In the case of other removal work involving the draining of part quantities of coolant, replace these quantities which have been drained with new coolant.
Never reuse used coolant!
When replacing and removing components which rely on the corrosion protection effect of the coolant, it is essential to change the coolant. The cooling system must therefore be drained and refilled.
In the case of other removal work involving the draining of part quantities of coolant, replace these quantities which have been drained with new coolant.
