Owner`s manual
NOTICE:
When adding coolant,
it
is important that you
use only
DEX-COOL@
(silicate-free) coolant.
If
coolant other than
DEX-COOL
is added to
the system, premature engine, heater core or
radiator corrosion may result.
In
addition, the
engine coolant will require change sooner
--
at
30,000
miles
(50
000
km)
or
24
months,
whichever occurs first. Damage caused by the
use of coolant other than
DEX-COOL@
is not
,
covered by your new vehicle warranty.
What
to
Use
Use a mixture of one-half
clean
water
(preferably
distilled) and one-half
DEX-COOL’
coolant which
won’t damage aluminum
parts.
.If
you
use this mixture,
you
don’t need to add anything else.
I
’
Adding only plain water to your cooling system
can be dangerous. Plain water, or some other
liquid like alcohol, can boil before the proper
coolant mixture
will.
Your vehicle’s coolant
warning system is set for the proper coolant
mixture. With plain water or the wrong mixture,
your engine could get too hot but you wouldn’t
get the overheat warning. Your engine could
catch fire and
you
or others could
be
burned.
Use a
50/50
mixture
of
clean water and
DEX-COOL@
coolant.
