COOLANT
At
the time of manufacture, the cooling system is filled with a 50:50 mixture of distilled water and ethylene
glycol anti-freeze. This
50:50 mixture will provide the optimum corrosion protection and excellent heat pro-
tection, and
will protect the cooling system from freezing at temperatures above -31
"C
(-24
"F).
If the vehicle is to be exposed to temperatures below
-31
"C
(-24
"F),
this mixing ratio should be increased
up to 55% or
60%
according to the figure.
*
Use a high quality ethylene glycol base anti-freeze, mixed with distilled water. Do not mix an
alcohol base anti-freeze and different brands of anti-freeze.
*
Do not put in
60%
and more anti-freeze or
50%
and less. (Refer to below figure.)
'
Do not use a radiator anti-leak additive.

You can be injured by scalding fluid or steam if you open the radiator cap when the engine is
hot. After the engine cools, wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove the cap by
turning
it
a quarter turn to allow pressure to escape and then turn the cap all the way off.
*The engine must be cool before servicing the cooling system.

Coolant is harmful;
If
It
comes in contact with skin or eyes, flush with water.
If swallowed accidentally, induce vomiting and call physlclan Immediately.
Keep it away from children.
