Recommended antifreeze
High-quality ethylene glycol antifreeze
containing corrosion inhibitors for
aluminum engines
Mixing ratio
1 : 1 (antifreeze : water)
Quantity total amount
1.32L (1.16 lmp qt, 1.40 US qt)
Coolant reservoir capacity
0.627 L (0.55 lmp qt, 0.65 US qt)
Warning:
• If coolant splashes in your eyes,
thoroughly wash them with water
and consult a doctor.
• If coolant splashes on your

• Do not mix different types of
antifreeze.
Note:
Adding water instead of coolant lowers
the antifreeze content of the coolant. If
water is used instead of coolant, check,
and if necessary, correct the antifreeze
concentration of the coolant. Use only
distilled water. However, soft water may
be used if distilled water is not
available.
