INSPECT Check     
1 Remove maintenance flap.    
2 Turn the cap (1) on the coolant expansion reservoir (2) counter-clockwise by half a turn, bleed overpressure, and then unscrew the cap (1).    
3 Check coolant level in the coolant expansion reservoir (2). IMPORTANT The coolant level in the coolant expansion reservoir (2) must be at the upper marking.
If the coolant level is not at the top marking,

Determine the cause or correct the coolant level.
