WARNING! Ethylene glycol can be fatal if ingested and can cause skin irritation and eye damage. The coolant recommended by Scania is a mix- ture of water with antifreeze and corrosion inhib- itor (ethylene glycol). The coolant has several characteristics which are important for the oper- ation of the cooling system: •...
Cooling system Antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor con- centration table 35% by volume of Scania antifreeze provides sufficient protection against corrosion. Example: The total volume of the cooling system is 40 litres in this example. The measured concentration of ethylene gly- col is 35% by volume (freezing point -21 °C).
Cooling system Antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor con- centration table 35% by volume of Scania antifreeze provides sufficient protection against corrosion. Example: The total volume of the cooling system is 10.6 US gallons in this example. The measured concentration of ethylene gly- col is 35% by volume (freezing point -6°F).
Cooling system Checking coolant level Daily The following instructions apply to Scania ex- pansion tanks. For other types of expansion tanks, follow the manufacturer's instructions. WARNING! Never open the coolant filler cap when the en- gine is hot. Hot coolant and steam may spray out and cause burns.
