For mixture percentage, refer to the following table.
CAUTION
To prevent burning yourself, do not remove the radiator cap or loosen the drain plug while the engine is hot.
Procedure for changing coolant:
1. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise to remove it.
2. Loosen the radiator drain plug and drain the coolant into a suitable container.
3. With the plug loose, flush the system with running water.
4. Drain the system completely and retighten the drain plug. Add the necessary amount
of ethylene-glycol-based coolant and water to provide the required protection against
freezing and corrosion. In extremely cold climates, add ethylene-glycol based coolant
in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer.
5. Run the engine at idle with the radiator cap off. Slowly add additional coolant
as necessary.
6. At this point, wait until the engine reaches normal operating temperature. Depress
the accelerator two or three times; then add coolant as required. Be careful not
to burn yourself.
7. Replace the radiator cap. Inspect all connections for leaks and recheck the coolant
level in the reservoir. Recheck again after a few days and add coolant as necessary.
