CHANGING THE COOLANT
CAUTION:
Adding water instead of coolant lowers

the antifreeze content of the coolant. If
water is used instead of coolant, check,
and if necessary, correct the antifreeze
concentration of the coolant.
Use only distilled water. However, soft
G
water may be used if distilled water is not
available.
If coolant comes into contact with painted
G
surfaces, immediately wash them with
water.
