CAUTION!
•Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive Tech-
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 (anti-
freeze).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.
•Do not use water alone or alcohol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) products.
Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be
compatible with the radiator engine coolant and may plug the radiator.
•This vehicle has not been designed for use with propylene glycol-based engine
coolant (antifreeze).Use of propylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) is
not recommended.
