Cooling System — Drain Flush And Refill
If the engine coolant (antifreeze) is dirty or contains a

considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with a

reliable cooling system cleaner. Follow with a thorough

rinsing to remove all deposits and chemicals. Properly

dispose of old engine coolant (antifreeze).
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper

maintenance intervals.
Selection Of Coolant
Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in

“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information.

CAUTION!

Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than

specified Organic Additive Technology (OAT) en-
gine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine
damage and may decrease corrosion protection.
Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine cool-
ant is different and should not be mixed with
Hybrid Organic Additive Technology (HOAT) en-
gine coolant (antifreeze) or any “globally compat-
ible” 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.90032), by an au-
thorized dealer as soon as possible.
