• Check the coolant level daily or when refueling.
• Drain and flush the coolant system every 60,000 miles or two years
and refill with a heavy-duty coolant (50/50 mix of water and anti-
freeze).
• If the coolant is below the MIN mark the low coolant alarm will
sound and the low coolant light will appear on the dash. You will
need to stop and check for coolant loss before driving.
• The coolant level to remain between the MAX and MIN level in the
reservoir.
Routine Maintenance Recommendations
1. Check the SCA concentration level every 15,000 miles/6 months.
2. Change the coolant filter every 15,000 miles/6 months.
3. Drain and flush the system every 240,000 miles/2 years, and refill
with a heavy-duty coolant (50/50 mix of water and antifreeze)
4. Always use antifreeze. In addition to freeze protection, antifreeze
is essential for overheat and corrosion protection.
5. The supplemental coolant additive (SCA) is required.
6. Freeze point should be measured every 15,000 miles/6 months.
Fully formulated products contain SCA and are required to protect the
cooling system from fouling, solder blooming and general corrosion. The
cooling filter is required to protect the coolant system from abrasive materi-
als, debris and precipitated coolant additives.
Supplement coolant additives, or equivalent, are used to prevent liner pit-
ting, corrosion and scale deposits in the cooling system.
NOTE: The correct filter is determined by the total cooling sys-
tem capacity and oil drain interval. Refer to the Coolant
Capacity Specifications in this section.
CAUTION: Insufficient concentration of the coolant additives
will result in liner pitting and engine failure. The SCA concen-
tration must not fall below 1.2 units or exceed 3 units per gallon
of cooling system capacity.
