The coolant liquid is circulated by an electric pump, through the motor and though a small radiator. Together with the heater circuit (which runs independently and has its own circulation pump), the cooling circuit is connected to the original coolant liquid reservoir. The air buffer in the reservoir will take up thermal expansion of the coolant liquid, and it can be pressurized to ease refilling and emptying of the two circuits. | The coolant liquid is circulated by an electric pump, through the motor and though a small radiator.
