The cover is recommended to be used especially in diesel-powered cars in winter, when the outside temperature drops to +5 degrees or below. The radiator shroud effectively prevents the direct entry of wind and snow into the engine compartment, reducing, for example, the chance of the breather tube freezing. Using a cover, the engine reaches normal operating temperature faster.
The cover must be removed, it must be removed when the outside temperature warms up to plus temperature, so that the engine does not overheat. Keep an eye on your car's engine temperature gauge and remove the cover immediately if you notice that the engine temperature rises above normal. On cars without an engine temperature gauge, remove the cowling as soon as the engine temperature indicator lights up. The cowling is not necessarily the cause of the engine overheating, so keep an eye on the engine temperature even with the cowling removed.
Depending on the location of the sensor that measures the outside temperature, the car's outside temperature display may show the wrong temperature when the cover is installed. The radiator shroud is always installed above the front bumper air intake or radiator grill, because if the shroud is installed too deep in an inconspicuous place, it can affect the engine air intake and damage the engine.
When washing the car, it is recommended to remove the radiator cover.
This is a general installation instruction for all car models. If you are unsure about the installation of the grill cover, please contact the product dealer.
- Open the package.
- The package contains all the parts required for installation. We recommend using a flat screwdriver as an aid.
- The length of the hook-shaped mounting parts may vary depending on the car model. Most fasteners are used in the upper and lower parts. Some car models also have fasteners on the sides or in the middle.There are pre-drilled holes in the attachment points of the cover. Before installing the first fastener, check the length of all fasteners and check where fasteners of different lengths should be installed.
- Put the fixing hook through the prepared opening of the grill.
- Place the grill cover (on the air intake in the bumper or on the radiator grill).
- At the end of the mount there is a slot for a flat screwdriver. Using a screwdriver, press down on the middle of the mounting hook so that the hook is on the other end of the mounting element. With the help of a screwdriver, the hook can be turned in different directions to attach it to a suitable attachment point.
- Repeat the previous step with all fasteners.
- Installation complete
