Engine Coolant

The cooling system in your vehicle is filled with
DEX-COOL

®

engine coolant. This coolant is designed

to remain in your vehicle for 5 years or 150,000 miles
(240 000 km), whichever occurs first, if you add
only DEX-COOL

®

extended life coolant.

The following explains your cooling system and how to
add coolant when it is low. If you have a problem
with engine overheating, see Engine Overheating on
page 5-22
.

A 50/50 mixture of clean, drinkable water and
DEX-COOL

®

coolant will:

Give freezing protection down to

34°F (

37°C).

Give boiling protection up to 265°F (129°C).

Protect against rust and corrosion.

Help keep the proper engine temperature.

Let the warning messages and gages work as they
should.

Notice: When adding coolant, it is important that
you use only DEX-COOL

®

(silicate-free) coolant.

If coolant other than DEX-COOL

®

is added to

the system, premature engine, heater core or
radiator corrosion may result. In addition, the engine
coolant will require change sooner -- at 30,000 miles
(50,000 km) or 24 months, whichever occurs first.
Damage caused by the use of coolant other
than DEX-COOL

®

is not covered by your new vehicle

warranty.
