Range Rover Evoque: Topping up the coolant
Never remove the filler cap
when the
engine is hot - escaping steam or
scalding water could cause serious
personal injury.
Antifreeze is highly inflammable. Do
not allow antifreeze to come into
contact with naked flames or other
sources of ignition (e.g. a hot engine)
- a fire may result.
Unscrew the filler cap slowly,
allowing the pressure to escape
before removing completely.
When travelling in
territories where the
water supply contains salt, always
ensure you carry a supply of fresh (rain
or distilled) water. Topping up with salt
water will cause serious engine
damage.
Top-up to the MAX indicator mark on the side
of the expansion tank. Use only a 50% mix of
water and Texaco XLC antifreeze.
Note: In an emergency - and only if the
approved antifreeze is unavailable - top-up the
cooling system with clean water, but be aware
of the resultant reduction in frost protection.
Do not top-up or refill with conventional
antifreeze formulations. If in doubt consult a
qualified technician.
Ensure the cap is tightened fully after top-up is
completed by turning the cap until the ratchet
cap clicks.
