Please note that it is the owner’s responsibility to main-
tain the proper level of protection against freezing ac-
cording to the temperatures occurring in the area where
the vehicle is operated.
NOTE: Mixing coolant (antifreeze) types will decrease
the life of the Power Electronics and Battery Thermal
Management Systems coolant (antifreeze) and will re-
quire more frequent coolant (antifreeze) changes.
Power Electronics and Battery Thermal
Management Systems — Drain, Flush And Refill
Refer to “Maintenance Schedules” in Section 7 of this
supplement for the proper maintenance intervals.
If the coolant (antifreeze) is dirty or contains a consider-
able amount of sediment, clean and flush with a reliable
cooling system cleaner. Follow with a thorough rinsing to
remove all deposits and chemicals. Properly dispose of
old coolant (antifreeze) solution.
CAUTION!
It is recommended to have the cooling systems ser-
viced at your authorized studio. Failure to do so
could result in poor cooling system performance
and/or vehicle damage.
Disposal Of Used Power Electronics and Battery
Thermal Management Systems Coolant
Used antifreeze is a regulated substance requiring proper
disposal. Check with your local authorities to determine
the disposal rules for your community. To prevent inges-
tion by animals or children, do not store antifreeze in
open containers or allow it to remain in puddles on the
ground. If ingested by a child, contact a physician
immediately. Clean up any ground spills immediately.
