Filling Radiator

[arm85]

Okay guys sorry this is probably an extremely simple thing to do but seeing i have never been shown i thought i should as. Okay for my radiator to work right i need to keep the levels in it up right? SO do i do this just with water or do i add water and coolant? When i am refilling do i refill it in the radiator or in the white tank in the engine bay?

What goes where?

I have to use distilled water right?

Sorry for the noob question

If you are just "topping up", then you can just use water. You can use mains supply if it's OK (don't know what Wagga's water supply is like, quality-wise, but Sydney and Melbourne is nearly as good as distilled water). Maybe tank water if you can get it would be the best.

Top-up straight into the radiator. Half fill the overflow bottle with plain water.

Okay so just top up the radiator right to the top and top up the white tank to half-ful yeah the water here is okay so i will just use tap water. I dont have to worry about coolant?
