Adding Coolant
Your vehicle has been built with an
improved engine coolant (antifreeze)
that allows extended maintenance in-
tervals. This engine coolant (anti-
freeze) can be used up to ten years or
240 000 km before replacement. To
prevent reducing this extended main-
tenance period, it is important that
you use the same engine coolant (an-
tifreeze) throughout the life of your
vehicle.
Use only high purity water such as
distilled or deionized water when
mixing the water/engine coolant (an-
tifreeze) solution. The use of lower
quality water will reduce the amount
of corrosion protection in the engine
cooling system.
Please note that it is the owner's re-
sponsibility to maintain the proper
level of protection against freezing ac-
cording to the temperatures occurring
in the area where the vehicle is oper-
ated.NOTE: Mixing engine coolant
(antifreeze) types will decrease the
life of the engine coolant (anti-
freeze) and will require more fre-
quent coolant changes.
Cooling System Pressure Cap
The cap must be fully tightened to
prevent loss of coolant, and to ensure
that coolant will return to the radiator
from the coolant recovery bottle.
The cap should be inspected and
cleaned if there is any accumulation of
foreign material on the sealing surfaces.WARNING!
The warning words “DO NOT
OPEN HOT” on the cooling system
pressure cap are a safety precau-
tion. Never add engine coolant (an-
tifreeze) when the engine is over-
heated. Do not loosen or remove
the cap to cool an overheated en-
gine. Heat causes pressure to build
up in the cooling system. To pre-
vent scalding or injury, do not re-
move the pressure cap while the
system is hot or under pressure.

WARNING!
(Continued)
Do not use a pressure cap other than the one specified for your
vehicle. Personal injury or engine
damage may result.
Disposal Of Used Engine Coolant
Used ethylene glycol-based engine
coolant (antifreeze) is a regulated
substance requiring proper disposal.
Check with your local authorities to
determine the disposal rules for your
community. To prevent ingestion by
animals or children, do not store eth-
ylene glycol-based engine coolant
(antifreeze) in open containers or al-
low it to remain in puddles on the
ground. If ingested by a child or pet,
seek emergency assistance immedi-
ately. Clean up any ground spills im-
mediately.
