Engine Coolant - Suzuki Jimny 2022 Manual

NOTICE
• When replacing the oil filter, it is
recommended that you use a genu-
ine SUZUKI replacement filter. If
you use an aftermarket filter, check
that it is of equivalent quality and
follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
• Oil leakage from the periphery of
the oil filter or drain plug indicate
incorrect installation or gasket
damage. If you find any leakage or
are not sure that the filter has been
properly tightened, have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer or a qualified work-
shop.

Engine Coolant

Selection of Coolant
To maintain optimum performance and
durability of your engine, use SUZUKI gen-
uine coolant or equivalent.
This type of coolant is the best for cooling
system for the following reasons:
• The coolant helps maintain proper
engine temperature.
• It gives proper protection against freez-
ing and boiling.
• It gives proper protection against corro-
sion and rust.
Failure to use the proper coolant can dam-
age your cooling system. Your SUZUKI
dealer can help you select the proper cool-
ant.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
NOTICE
To avoid damaging your cooling sys-
tem:
• Always use a high quality ethylene
glycol base non-silicate type cool-
ant diluted with distilled water or
deionized water at the correct mix-
ture concentration.
• Check that the proper mix is 50/50
coolant to distilled water or deion-
ized water and in no case higher
than 50/50. Concentrations greater
than 50/50 coolant to distilled water
or deionized water will cause over-
heating conditions.
• Do not use straight coolant nor
plain water.
• Do not add extra inhibitors or addi-
tives. They may not be compatible
with your cooling system.
• Do not mix different types of base
coolants. Doing so may result in
accelerated seal wear and/or the
possibility of severe overheating
and extensive engine/automatic
transmission damage.
