CAUTION! (Continued)

This vehicle has not been designed for use with

Propylene Glycol based engine coolant (anti-
freeze). Use of Propylene Glycol base engine cool-
ant (antifreeze) is not recommended.

Adding Engine Coolant
Your vehicle has been built with an improved engine
coolant (antifreeze) that allows extended maintenance
intervals. This engine coolant (antifreeze) can be used up
to five years or 104,000 miles (169 000 km) before
replacement. To prevent reducing this extended mainte-
nance period, it is important that you use the same
engine coolant (antifreeze) throughout the life of your
vehicle.

Please review these recommendations for using Hybrid
Organic Additive Technology (HOAT) engine coolant
(antifreeze). When adding engine coolant (antifreeze):

• The manufacturer recommends using MOPAR௡

Antifreeze/Coolant 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula
HOAT (Hybrid Organic Additive Technology) or
equivalent.

• Mix a minimum solution of 50% HOAT engine coolant

and distilled water. Use higher concentrations (not to
exceed 70%) if temperatures below

Ϫ34°F (Ϫ37°C) are

anticipated.

• Use only high purity water such as distilled or deion-

ized water when mixing the water/engine coolant
(antifreeze) solution. The use of lower quality water
will reduce the amount of corrosion protection in the
engine cooling system.
