COOLANT

Your vehicle cooling system is filled
with ethylene glycol based long life
coolant.
In the correct mixture, this coolant
provides the cooling and heating
system with excellent protection
against corrosion and freezing.
When the engine is cool, the coolant
level should be between the MIN and
MAX mark on the coolant reservoir.
The level of coolant rises as the engine
warms and drops back as the engine
cools.
Caution
Plain water or the wrong mixture can
damage the cooling system.
Do not use plain water, alcohol or
methanol antifreeze in coolant
system.
Use only General Motors India Pvt.
Ltd. recommended coolant available
with your CHEVROLET retailer.
The engine may overheat or even
catch fire.
If the coolant level falls below the MIN
mark, refill the reservoir with General
Motors India Pvt. Ltd. recomm-
ended coolant available with your
CHEVROLET retailer, but only when
the engine is cool. In order to protect
your vehicle in extremely cold weather,
use GMI approved coolant.
Caution
In cold weather, water can freeze and
crack the engine, radiator, heater core
and other parts. Use the recommended
coolant and the proper coolant mixture.
