CAUTION!
•Mixingofenginecoolant(antifreeze)otherthanspecifiedOrganicAdditiveTech-
nology (OAT) engine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and may
decrease corrosion protection. Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine coolant is
different and should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive Technology (HOAT)
engine coolant (antifreeze) or any “globally compatible” coolant (antifreeze). If a
non-OAT engine coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into the cooling system in an
emergency, the cooling system will need to be drained, flushed, and refilled with
fresh OAT coolant (conforming to MS-12106), by an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
•Donotusewateraloneoralcohol-basedenginecoolant(antifreeze)products.Do
not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be compat-
ible with the radiator engine coolant and may plug the radiator.
•Thisvehiclehasnotbeendesignedforusewithpropyleneglycol-basedengine
coolant (antifreeze). Use of propylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) is
not recommended.
