Attention! Do not allow antifreeze to come into contact with exposed areas of the body and painted surfaces of the car. Wash off accidental splashes with plenty of water without delay. Remember that antifreeze is a highly toxic liquid and getting it into the body, even in small quantities, is fraught with the most serious consequences, even death. Never leave antifreeze stored in a loosely closed container, immediately collect spilled coolant on the floor. Remember that the sweet smell of antifreeze can attract the attention of children and animals. Consult with local authorities about ways to dispose of used coolant - in many regions of the world there are special points for receiving various kinds of waste. Never drain old coolant down the drain and onto the ground!
Attention! Drained coolant must not be reused. The coolant is poisonous and must not be disposed of with household waste!
The coolant must be replaced every time when performing repairs related to the emptying of the cooling system, as well as work on replacing engine components - in the process of circulation of the coolant, the anti-corrosion additives included in its composition are deposited on the surface of new parts, forming a protective layer that prevents the development of corrosion.
Description of the procedure for replacing the coolant is given in Chapter Ongoing care and maintenance.
The coolant level switch is located at the bottom of the expansion tank on the right side of the engine compartment
