MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
391
Adding   Engin e Coolan t
The use  of lower quality   water will  red uce the amount   of
corrosion  protection   in the  engine  cooling  system .
Your  vehicle   has  been  built   with  an  improved    engine
coolant  that  allow s extend ed maintenance   intervals.  This
coolant  can be  used up  to 5 Years or  100,000 miles before
rep lacem ent. To prevent   red ucing this  extend ed  mainte-
nance   period ,  it  is  important    that   you  use   the  sam e
coolant  throu ghou t the life of you r vehicle.  Please review
these  recom mend ations  for using  Hybrid   Organic  Addi-
tive  Technology  (HOAT) coolant.
Please  note  that  it is the  owner’s  resp onsibility  to  main-
tain  the  prop er  level  of  protection   against   freezing  ac-
cord ing to  the tem peratu res  occurring  in  the area  where
the  vehicle  is operated .
NOTE:   Mixing  coolant  typ es will decrease  the life of the
engine  coolant   and  will   requ ire more   frequ ent  coolant
changes.
When  adding   coolant,  a  minim um  solu tion of  50% rec-
ommend  ed Mop ar Antifreeze/    Coolant  5 Year /  100,000
Mile Form ula  HOAT (Hybrid  Organic  Additive   Technol-
ogy), or  equ ivalent,  in water  shou ld be  used . Use higher
concentrations   (not to exceed  70%) if tem peratu res below
Ϫ34°F (Ϫ37°C ) are  anticip ated .
Coolin g  System  Pressu re  Cap
The  cap   must   be   fully  tightened    to   prevent   loss   of
coolant,   and  to  insu re  that   coolant   will  retu rn  to  the  7
rad iator  from the  coolant  recovery  bottle.
The cap  shou ld  be insp ected  and  cleaned  if there  is  any
accumulation   of foreign  material  on  the sealing  surfaces.
Use only  high purity   water  such as distilled   or deionized
water  when   mixing  the  water/  engine   coolant  solu tion.
