15. Care and Service in Cold Weather
In cold weather, you may have difficulty in starting the en-
gine or the cooling water may freeze. So take measures as
follows:
15-1-1. Fuel and lube oil
Use low viscosity fuel and lube oil. For the specified vis-
cosities, refer to Section "21. Fueling, Oiling and Greasing
Based on Temperature Range".
15-1-2. Cooling water
IMPORTANT
Never use an anti-freeze containing methanol, etha-
nol, or propanol.
For the timing of cooling water change and the mixing ratio
of the anti-freeze, refer to Section "25-2. Nonperiodic ser-
vices".
Note :
Because a long-life coolant (LLC) is added to the cooling
water, you need not change it unless the temperature be-
low -31°F (-35°C).
If the temperature falls below -31°F (-35°C), refer to Sec-
tion "25-2. Nonperiodic services" to control the density of
the cooling water.
15-1. Preparing for cold weather
Anti-freeze is flammable. When handling anti-
freeze, keep away from any sources of ignition and
do not smoke.
