NOTICE: When adding coolant, it is important that you use GM Goodwrench DEX-COOL®
or HAVOLINE® DEX-COOL® coolant. If Coolant other than DEX-COOL®
or HAVOLINE® DEX-COOL® is added to the system the engine coolant will
require change sooner; at 50 000 km (30,000 mi)
or 24 months.
A 50/50 mixture of ethylene glycol (DEX-COOL®) and
water will provide the follow protection:
| | Notice: Pure coolant can be added to raise the boiling point of the coolant,
but too much will affect the freezing point. Do not use a solution stronger
than 70 percent, as the freeze level rises rapidly after this point.
Pure coolant will freeze at -22°C (-8°F).
|
| • | Give freezing protection down to -37°C (-34°F). |
| • | Give boiling protection up to 129°C (260°F) |
| • | Help keep the proper engine temperature. |
| • | Let the warning lights and gauges work correctly. |
