TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Immobilization period-long fill of coolant!
Do not 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 emptied and refilled.
In the case of other removal work involving the draining of part quantities of coolant, the coolant level must be topped up with new coolant.

NOTE:
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Filling without the vacuum filling equipment (watering can filling) is not permitted .
Failure to observe this rule runs the risk of component damage/engine damage.
Filling specification absolutely must be adhered to.
It is not permissible to operate the vehicle if the filling procedure has not been fully completed. Otherwise functional limitations (degradation) and/or overheating may result.
A bleeding procedure is required after a part has been exchanged in the cooling system and/or after refilling the cooling system.
