• Anti-Freeze
A CAUTION
• When
using
antifreeze,
put
on some protection such as
rubber gloves (Antifreeze contains position.).
•
If
should
drink
antifreeze,
throw
up at once and take medical
attention.
• When antifreeze comes in contact with the
skin
or
clothing,
wash
it
off
immediately.
• Do
not
mix
different types
of
Antifreeze.
The mixture can produce chemical reaction causing harmful
substances.
• Antifreeze is extremely flammable and explosive under
certain conditions. Keep fire and children away
from
antifreeze.
• When draining
fluids
from the engine, place some container
underneath the engine body.
• Do
not
pour
waste
onto
the grounds, down a drain,
or
into
any water source.
• Also, observe the relevant environmental protection
regulations when
disposing
of
antifreeze.
If it freezes, coolant can damage the cylinders and radiator. If the
ambient temperature falls below 0
°C
(32
OF)
or before a long-term
storage, let out cooling water completely, or mix fresh water with
long-life coolant and fill the radiator and reserve tank with the
mixture.
1.
Long-life coolant (hereafter LLC) comes in several types. Use
ethylene glycol (EG) type for this engine.
2.
Before employing LLC-mixed cooling water, fill the radiator with
fresh water and empty it again.
Repeat this procedure 2 or 3 times to clean
up
the inside.
3.
Mixing the LLC.
Put the LLC
in
cooling water in the percentage (%) for a target
temperature. When mixing, stir it up well, and then fill into the
radiator.
4.
The procedure for the mixing
of
water and antifreeze differs
according to the make
of
the antifreeze and the ambient
temperature. Refer to SAE J1034 standard, more specifically
also to SAE J814c .
• IMPORTANT
• When the antifreeze is mixed
with
water, thee antifreeze
mixing ratio
must
be less than
50
%.
