Engine coolant description
Caution
|
At the time of manufacture, the cooling system is filled with a 50:50 mixture of distilled water and ethylene glycol anti-freeze. This 50:50 mixture will provide the optimum corrosion protection and excellent heat protection, and will protect the cooling system from freezing at temperatures above –31 °c (–24 °f).
If the vehicle is to be exposed to temperatures below – 31 °c (–24 °f), this mixing ratio should be increased up to 55% or 60% according to the figure.
