Mixture Ratio For R-Models
CAUTION:
On the R models, use only tap water for mixing (engine codes: CDLC, CDLF and CRZA).
Never use distilled water as the base for coolant!
| Freeze protection to | Coolant additive | Water |
|---|---|---|
| -25°C (-13°F) | approximately. 40 % | approximately. 60 % |
| -35°C (-31°F) | approximately. 50 % | approximately. 50 % |
| -40°C (-40°F) | approximately. 60 % | approximately. 40 % |
NOTE:
The coolant additive G12 Plus Plus protects the entire cooling system better from corrosion and reduces the danger of sludge and corrosion, and increases the boiling point. For these reasons, the cooling system must be filled with radiator freeze and corrosion protection fluid all year round.
Especially in countries with tropical climates or when vehicle is driven under heavy load, the coolant improves the engine reliability by its increased boiling point.
The coolant concentration must not be reduced by adding water, even during the warmer season. The coolant additive ratio must be at least 40%.
