The engine has aluminum parts
and must be protected by an
ethylene-glycol-based coolant to
prevent corrosion and freezing.

Alcohol, methanol, Borate or
Silicate.
These coolants could damage the
cooling system.

DO NOT MIX alcohol or methanol
with the coolant. This could
damage the cooling system.

Do not use a solution that
contains more than 60%
antifreeze.
