Never leave antifreeze being stored in leaky closed container, immediately collect 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. At all do not merge old cooling liquid in the sewerage and on the earth!

The sensor switch of level of cooling liquid is located on day of a broad tank in the right part of an impellent compartment

Cooling liquid should be replaced at repair of system of cooling at which liquid merges. In case at repair the head of cylinders, the block of cylinders, sealing laying of a head of cylinders, a radiator, the heat exchanger or the engine are replaced, cooling liquid should be replaced with the new. In the course of circulation anticorrosive additives are besieged on new details from light metal and by that form a durable anticorrosive layer. In used cooling liquid of an anticorrosive additive, as a rule, it is not so enough to form a sufficient protective layer on new details.
