coolant;

• The mixture you use should con-

tain 50% concentration of anti-

freeze.

• If the lowest ambient temperature

in your area is expected to be –35°C

(–31°F) or below, use higher con-

centrations up to 60% following the

instructions on the antifreeze con-

NOTICE

Adding Coolant

WARNING

To avoid damaging your cooling sys-

tem:

• Always use a high quality ethylene

glycol base non-silicate type cool-

ant diluted with distilled water at

the correct mixture concentration.

• Make sure that the proper mix is 50/

50 coolant to distilled water and in

no case higher than 70/30. Concen-

trations greater than 70/30 coolant

to distilled water will cause over-

heating conditions.

Engine coolant is harmful or fatal if

swallowed or inhaled. Do not drink

antifreeze or coolant solution. If swal-

lowed, do not induce vomiting. Imme-

diately contact

poison control

center or a physician. Avoid inhaling

mist or hot vapors; if inhaled, remove

to fresh air. If coolant gets in eyes,

flush eyes with water and seek medi-

cal attention. Wash thoroughly after

handling. Solution can be poisonous

to animals. Keep out of the reach of

children and animals.

• Do not use straight coolant nor

plain water (except SUZUKI LLC:

Super (Blue)).

• Do not add extra inhibitors or addi-

tives. They may not be compatible

with your cooling system.

• Do not mix different types of base

coolants. Doing so may result in

accelerated seal wear and/or the

possibility of severe overheating

and extensive engine/automatic

transaxle or CVT damage.
