Mine seems to settle at around halfway up, near the top of the side outlet pipe to the engine. If you put a smidge too much in it should spit the excess out when hot (expansion)

Yep mine has settled down at this level too, after much filling up and coolant spitting out of the filler cap. The manual is very misleading on this.

all sorted now though, think it was a combination of air in the system plus me filling it up too much, bought a new filler cap anyway as apparently the spring loaded seal inside does wear on the caps...
