Caution! Hoses, like drive belts, wear out quickly. Check their condition regularly and replace them if necessary.
1. Check the condition of the coolant; if it is brown or rusty in color, the coolant must be replaced and the cooling system flushed.
2. Check the cooling system hoses for damage, wear or leaks.
2. Inspect the hoses for any worn areas.
3. Check the hoses for soft spots.
4. Do not tighten the fasteners too much, if the hose loses flexibility, this may lead to its rupture.
5. Check the hoses for cracks and breaks.
6. Check the tightness of the hose clamps.
7. Use compressed air or a soft brush to clean the radiator of dead insects, leaves and other dirt.
