6. Recommended coolant concentration is 48/52 to 50/50 engine coolant to distilled water (freeze protection -34°C to -37°C [-30°F to -34°F]).

7. For extremely cold climates (less than -37°C [-34°F]):

It may be necessary to increase the coolant concentration above 50%.

NEVER increase the coolant concentration above 60%.

Maximum coolant concentration is 60/40 for cold weather areas.

A coolant concentration of 60% provides freeze protection down to -50°C (-58°F)

Engine coolant concentrations above 60% will decrease the overheat protection
