To provide important corrosion protec-
tion, the solution must be at least 45%
anticorrosion/antifreeze [equivalent to
freeze protection to approximately –22°F
(–30°C)]. If you use a solution that is more
than 55% anticorrosion/antifreeze
[freeze protection to approximately
–49°F (–45°C)], the engine temperature
will increase due to the lower heat trans-
fer capability of the solution. Therefore,
do not use more than this amount of an-
ticorrosion/antifreeze.
If the coolant level is low, water and
MB 325.0 anticorrosion/antifreeze
should be used to bring it up to the prop-
er level (have cooling system checked for
signs of leakage). Please make sure the
mixture is in accordance with label in-
structions.
The water in the cooling system must
meet minimum requirements, which are
usually satisfied by normal drinking wa-
ter. If you are not sure about the water
quality, consult an authorized Maybach
Studio.
Anticorrosion/antifreeze
Your vehicle contains a number of alumi-
num parts. The use of aluminum compo-
nents in motor vehicle engines
necessitates that anticorrosion/anti-
freeze coolant used in such engines be
specifically formulated to protect the
aluminum parts. (Failure to use such
anticorrosion/antifreeze coolant will re-
sult in a significantly shortened service
life).
Therefore, the following product is
strongly recommended for use in your
vehicle: Maybach 325.0 Anticorrosion/
Antifreeze Agent.
Before the start of the winter season (or
once a year in hot southern regions), you
should have the anticorrosion/antifreeze
concentration checked. The coolant is
also regularly checked each time you
bring your vehicle to an authorized May-
bach Studio for service.
The anticorrosion/antifreeze quantities
listed in the table below are in relation
to total filling capacity.
