Mix the recommended antifreeze with an equal
amount of water in a clean container.
NOTE:
• Always use Genuine Honda Antifreeze/Coolant.
Using a non-Honda coolant can result in corro-

or fail.
•
For best corrosion protection, the coolant con-
centration must be maintained year-round at
SOO
Io
minimum.
Coolant concentrations Jess than
50%
may not
provide sufficient protection against
corrosion or freezing. Coolant concentrations
greater than
60%
will impair cooling effi ciency
and are not recommended.
•
Do not use additional rust inhibitors or anti-rust
products; they may not be compatible with the
coolant.
