Use
1 Litre of Cool Plus Max will treat 20 litres of distilled water. If required, top-up with diluted inhibitor to avoid a rundown in concentration. Replace at 36 month / 60,000 km intervals. May be replaced more frequently depending on engine and driving conditions, or engine manufacturer’s requirements. To avoid possible incompatibility problems, do not mix with any other inhibitors or coolants.
When the vehicle is cool, drain the cooling system (including the heater), as per vehicle owner’s manual, thoroughly flush and rinse clean. Reconnect all hoses, drain plugs, etc. Fill with correct volume of coolant. Refer to the vehicle owner’s handbook for the volume needed. Fill through top opening of cooling system. Check level after engine has reached operating temperature and allowed to cool again. Any spillage on paintwork should be flushed off with water. Dispose of used material in accordance with local regulations.
Safety
Cool Plus Max is not classified as hazardous. Safety Data Sheet available. Keep out of the reach of children
