Cooling liquid

In order to avoid receiving burns, do not turn off a radiator cover until the radiator cooled down. Hot liquid and steam can take off under pressure if the cover is turned off too early.


 PERFORMANCE ORDER

    Turn off a radiator cover on the cooled-down engine.
    Turn off a drain stopper of a radiator and merge cooling liquid. Remove a broad tank, sideways from a radiator and merge liquid. Reliably tighten a stopper. Also install a broad tank. Fill in necessary amount of antifreeze in a radiator and start the engine for 2 – 3 minutes on single turns. It will distil the air which remained in the cooling system. Kill the engine. Add necessary amount of antifreeze so far level will not reach a radiator mouth. Twirl a radiator cover. Add antifreeze in a broad tank to the mark "FULL". Then twirl a tank stopper before coincidence of tags on a tank and a cover.

At installation of a cover of a broad tank, level tags on a tank and a cover.

    When replacing cooling liquid, use mix from an equal amount of water and antifreeze for the countries where ambient temperature during the winter period is below 16 °C (3 °F), and mix from 70% of water and 30% of antifreeze for the countries where ambient temperature does not fall below -16 °C (3 °F). For the countries in which there are no negative temperatures anyway use mix of 70% of water and 30% of antifreeze for prevention of corrosion, for protection and lubricant.
