⚠ CAUTION ⚠
Use extreme care when opening, pouring, and
mixing ammable antifreeze solutions. Remote
ames or electrical sparks can ignite undiluted
antifreezes and vapors. Use only in a well
ventilated area. Do not smoke when handling
ammable solutions. Failure to observe safety
precautions may result in re, injury, or death.
Never work with 100% alcohol solutions.
Notes:
1. Consult with your representative or distributor if you have any questions regarding antifreeze selection or
use.
2. Some antifreeze suppliers and manufacturers recommend the use of either de-ionized or distilled
water with their products. Some brands are designed to work with tap water. Consult the antifreeze
manufacturer’s technical data.
