Removing the expansion tank cap while the

out, seriously scalding you.
Always let the motor and radiator cool
down before removing the expansion tank
cap.
NOTICE
Genuine Honda inverter coolant is a 50/50 mixture of
antifreeze and water that can withstand freezing at
temperatures as low as about –31°F (–35°C). If your
vehicle is consistently subjected to temperatures
below this, the concentration of antifreeze in the
coolant should be increased. Consult an authorized
Honda Clarity Fuel Cell dealer for details.
If Honda antifreeze/coolant is not available, you may
use another major brand of non-silicate coolant as a
temporary replacement. Check that it is a high quality
coolant recommended for aluminum motors.
Continued use of any non-Honda coolant can result
in corrosion, causing the cooling system to
malfunction or fail. Have the cooling system flushed
and refilled with Honda antifreeze/coolant as soon as
possible.
