3. CAUTIONS
- If 100% of anti-freeze is added, the water pump vane can be damaged and thermal
conductivity can be decreased resulting in poor circulation in the cooling system which leads
to overheated engine.
- Use of non-recommended coolant could cause damage to the cooling system and
overheating of the engine.
- Opening the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is running or hot can cause burns by hot
steam or water.
- To open the coolant reservoir cap, wrap the cap with a wet towel or thick cloth after the
engine is cooled down sufficiently.
- If cool water is added to the heated engine, the engine or radiator can be deformed.
- The anti-freeze in the coolant can damage the painted surface, so avoid the contact of the
coolant to the painted body.
- The anti-freeze and water should be mixed in proper mixture ratio. Never add only water
when adding coolant.
- If the anti-freeze content is too low, the coolant can be frozen while the engine can be
overheated if anti-freeze content is too high.
