Coolant mixture is a 50% solution of water
and antifreeze.
This is the ideal solution for most operating
temperatures and provides good corrosion
protection.
This solution is also suited to the warm
season, as the mixture is less prone to
I N T O T H E
evaporative loss and will reduce the need for
top-ups.
In addition, less water evaporation means
fewer mineral salts depositing in the radiator,
which helps preserve the efficiency of the
cooling system.
When temperature drops below zero
degrees centigrade, check the cooling
system frequently and add more antifreeze
(up to 60% maximum) to the solution.
