Maintenance 7-11

Check coolant level

The coolant level must only be checked

when the engine is COLD.
Refer to page 7-5 for coolant header tank

location.

!

WARNING:

Do not remove the coolant header
tank filler/pressure cap while the
engine is hot. If the cap must be
removed, protect the hands against
escaping steam and slowly turn the
cap anti-clockwise until the steam
pressure starts to escape. Leave the
cap in this position until the pressure
is released, and then remove the cap
completely.

The coolant level should be between the

two marks located on the side of the

header tank. If persistent coolant loss is

noticed, report this to a Jaguar Dealer to

have the cause investigated at the earliest

opportunity.

Replenishing

!

WARNING:

Do not allow anti-freeze to make
contact with skin or eyes. If this
should happen, rinse the affected
area immediately with plenty of
water.
Caution:

Anti-freeze will damage

paintwork. Avoid spillage.
Replenish with the correct strength

anti-freeze and water, (see next page),

until the coolant is within the ‘max’ and

‘min’ marks on the header tank.
Refit the filler cap and hand tighten

securely until the ratchet operates.
