I like to adjust the coolant leve when the engine is cold, putting the level up to the "cold" marker if it has it. As long as it is in the range required and your not losing coolant or have any high teperature troubles, i wouldn't worry about it.

I just had High and Low Levels and its not leeking any colant. So you said that i should up fill the level to High.
Secondly should i add colant alone or should i add water with that?

Add a 50% coolant and 50% water mix to te reservior. Take it to the "high" if you want, but anywhere in between is acceptable.
