The cooling s stem in your vehicle is filled with
DEX-COOL engine coolant. This cooIant 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”

A 50/50 mixture of water and the DEX-COOL@ coolant
for your vehicle will:
Give freezing protection down to -34°F (-37°C).
Give boiling protection up to 265 “F ( 129°C).

Let the warning lights and gages work as
J

When adding coolant, it is important that you use
only
DEX-COOL@ (silicate-free) coolant.

I 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

distilled) and one-half DEX-COOL@ coolant which
won’t damage aluminum parts.
