Caution! Only use 19 40 650 (09 194 431) anti-freeze and ensure
a concentration of 50% water and 50% anti-freeze. The purpose of
anti-freeze is not only to protect the entire cooling system
against freezing but also to protect all coolant-affected parts
against corrosion and lime deposit. For this reason, anti-freeze
must be used even in tropical regions.
|
2. |
The water quality also plays an important role in addition to
the mix ratio. Water of drinkable quality usually meets these
requirements. The quality of purified sea water is inadequate!
|
3. |
Damage may also be caused to the engine if unauthorised
anti-freeze agent is used.
|
4. |
If radiator, cylinder head or cylinder head seal have been
replaced the old coolant must not be re-used.
