Additional Notes

  • The Ford Ka+ B562 (EU) with the 1.2 Duratec engine in its 2016-2018 configuration carries a cooling system capacity of 5 liters, which represents the total system fill volume used as a reference point for service and top-up procedures.
  • Both the 51 kW and 63 kW variants of the 1.2 Duratec share an identical 5-liter capacity for the 2016-2018 period, indicating no capacity difference between the two power outputs within that generation.
  • The 2016-2018 1.2 Duratec configurations specify a coolant check interval of every 20,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • A coolant change interval of 120 months is listed for the 2016-2018 1.2 Duratec under normal use, which translates to a 10-year service life for the coolant charge.
  • From 2018 onward, both 1.2 Duratec power variants transition to a higher capacity of 6.2 liters, with the specification noting the inclusion of the heater circuit in that total volume.
  • The 1.5 liters increase from 5 liters to 6.2 liters between the pre-2018 and post-2018 1.2 Duratec configurations reflects the addition of the heater core volume into the stated capacity figure.
  • The 1.5 TDCi (70 kW), available from 2018-2019, also carries a 6.2-liter cooling system capacity, matching the revised 1.2 Duratec figure, though without the heater notation present in the petrol variants.
