Range Rover Evoque: Coolant antifreeze
Antifreeze is poisonous and
can be
fatal if swallowed - keep containers
sealed and out of the reach of
children. If accidental consumption is
suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
The use of non-approved
antifreeze will
have an adverse effect on the engine
cooling system and therefore engine
durability.
Antifreeze will damage painted
surfaces; soak up any spillage with an
absorbent cloth immediately and wash
the area with a mixture of car shampoo
and water.
Antifreeze contains important corrosion
inhibitors. The antifreeze content of the coolant
must be maintained at 50% ± 5% all year round
(not just in cold conditions). To ensure that the
anti-corrosion properties of the coolant are
retained, the antifreeze content should be
checked once a year and completely renewed
every ten years, regardless of distance
travelled. Failure to do so may cause corrosion
of the radiator and engine components.
The specific gravity of a 50% antifreeze
solution at 20°C (68°F) is 1.068 and protects
against frost down to -40°C (-40°F).

emit explosive gasses.
Ensure that when working near,
or handling the battery, suitable

The washer reservoir supplies the front and

Check and top-up the reservoir level at least
every week. Always top-up with screen washer
fluid to prevent freezing.
