CAUTION
COOLANT IS TOXIC IF INGESTED; CONTACT WITH YOUR EYES OR SKIN MAY
CAUSE IRRITATION. IF THE FLUID GETS IN CONTACT WITH THE EYES OR
SKIN, RINSE REPEATEDLY WITH PLENTY OF WATER AND SEEK MEDICAL
ADVICE. IF SWALLOWED, INDUCE VOMITING, RINSE MOUTH AND THROAT
WITH PLENTY OF WATER AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE IMMEDIATELY.
Coolant solution is 50% water and 50% antifreeze fluid.
This mixture is suitable for the majority of operating temperatures and offers adequate
corrosion protection.
It is advisable to use the same mixture even in hot weather as this minimises loss due
to evaporation and the need of frequent top-ups.
This reduces the quantity of salt deposits left in the radiator by evaporating water to
ensure constant cooling system performance.
If the external temperature drops below 0°C (32°F), check the cooling circuit frequently
and, if necessary, increase the concentration of antifreeze (up to a maximum of 60%).
Use distilled water in the coolant mixture to avoid damaging the engine.
CAUTION
NEVER UNDO THE RADIATOR CAP WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARM, AS THE
COOLANT IS PRESSURISED AND VERY HOT. CONTACT WITH SKIN OR
CLOTHES MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS AND/OR INJURIES.
