When checking levels of liquids the car has to be parked on an equal horizontal platform, it is desirable with a hard coating.

Take the measuring probe from the directing tube and dry wipe it pure rags or a paper towel. Insert the probe back into a tube against the stop, then again take. Examine a probe edge, checking the size of the site moistened with oil. Level of oil has to be between the top and lower marks in a probe edge. In case of need add the corresponding amount of oil of the demanded grade in the engine.

To fill in oil in the engine it is necessary to uncover equipped with a carving of a jellied mouth. For the purpose of minimization of spraying of oil during its gas station in the engine use a funnel, or a butterdish with a long nose. Having filled in oil, screw and strongly tighten a cover of a jellied mouth, then start the engine and attentively examine a drain stopper and the surface of an oil filter interfaced to the block on existence of signs of leak of oil. Kill the engine, wait about 15 minutes during which oil will merge in the pallet, and double-check level.

Do not allow hit of antifreeze on open sites of a body and the painted car surfaces. Immediately wash away casual splashes a plentiful amount of water. Remember that antifreeze is extremely toxic liquid and its hit in an organism even in small amounts is fraught with the most serious consequences, up to a lethal outcome. Never leave antifreeze stored in leaky closed container, immediately collect the cooling liquid spilled on a floor. Remember that the sweetish smell of antifreeze can draw to itself attention of children and animals. About ways utilization of the fulfilled cooling liquid consult with local authorities. In many regions of the world special points on different reception of working off are equipped. Do not merge old cooling liquid in the sewerage and on the earth at all!

Recently nontoxical grades of antifreeze were developed, however they also have to be utilized in an organized order.

Level of cooling liquid in a broad tank is checked on a regular basis and has to be between marks of MIN and MOVE in translucent walls of a tank. It is necessary to remember that the level of liquid depends on its temperature therefore it has to be in a cold state only slightly above the lower mark, and after warming up of the engine - to rise to a mark the MOVE. In case of need make the corresponding adjustment, having added in a tank through a mouth the demanded quantity is fresher than mix.

Do not uncover a radiator for check of level of liquid in it at the warmed engine! For adjustment of level of liquid use only the demanded structure mix of ethylene glycol and the distilled water (about 50/50). Remember that frequent application for adjustment of level of cooling liquid leads idle time of water to gradual fluidifying of antifreeze and losing by mix of the of frost resistance and anticorrosive properties.

Do not uncover a radiator / a broad tank at the warmed engine at all!

14 Liquid of washing of a windshield is filled in in the special tank located in the left forward corner of a motive compartment of the car. In regions with a temperate climate as liquid for washing of glass clear water can be used, however it is not necessary to fill the tank more than on 2/3 for the purpose of compensation of expansion of water at its freezing during frosts. At operation of the car in severe climatic conditions it is necessary to fill in only patent screen wipers providing the corresponding decrease in a freezing point of liquid in the tank. In order to avoid frosting of glass when washing in cold weather previously warm up it by an obduv the air passed via the heater heat exchanger.

Do not use for addition in liquid for washing of glasses the antifreeze used in the cooling system at all, - the last is aggressive in relation to a paint and varnish covering of body panels!

Before check of level of liquid of the ABS modulator on the car it is necessary to make short (some minutes) a trip for the purpose of alignment of pressure. If the level of liquid rises much above a mark the MOVE, the car should be driven away on car repair shop for carrying out more detailed checks and performance of necessary repair.

Liquid level in tanks is well looked through through translucent walls of the last and has to be supported between two marks of MIN and MOVE in walls. At the corresponding complete set do not forget to check also the level of hydraulic liquid in the tank of the ABS block located in the right part of a motive compartment.
