Coolant

DESCRIPTION

WARNING: ANTIFREEZE IS AN ETHYLENE GLYCOL BASE COOLANT AND IS HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED OR INHALED. IF SWALLOWED, DRINK TWO GLASSES OF WATER AND INDUCE VOMITING. IF INHALED, MOVE TO FRESH AIR AREA. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT STORE IN OPEN OR UNMARKED CONTAINERS. WASH SKIN AND CLOTHING THOROUGHLY AFTER COMING IN CONTACT WITH ETHYLENE GLYCOL. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. DISPOSE OF GLYCOL BASE COOLANT PROPERLY, CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR GOVERNMENT AGENCY FOR LOCATION OF COLLECTION CENTER IN YOUR AREA. DO NOT OPEN A COOLING SYSTEM WHEN THE ENGINE IS AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE OR HOT UNDER PRESSURE, PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT. AVOID RADIATOR COOLING FAN WHEN ENGINE COMPARTMENT RELATED SERVICE IS PERFORMED, PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT.

CAUTION: Use of Propylene Glycol based coolants is not recommended, as they provide less freeze protection and less corrosion protection.

Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant Three Year Formula (green in color) ethylene glycol base coolant is recommended for optimum cooling performance and corrosion protection when mixed to a freeze point of -37°C (-35°F). If the coolant loses original color or becomes contaminated, drain flush, and replace with new properly mixed coolant.

For recommended coolant replacement intervals, refer to MAINTENANCE.

OPERATION
The cooling system is designed around the coolant. The coolant must accept heat from engine block metal and in the cylinder head area near the exhaust valves. Then coolant carries this heat to the radiator where the tube/fin assemblies can dissipate the heat to the air.
