92 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE If the coolant (antifreeze) is dirty or contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with a reliable cooling system cleaner. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all deposits and chemicals. Properly dispose of old coolant (antifreeze) solution. Selection Of Coolant Refer to "Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts" in this section for the correct fluid type. CAUTION! (Continued) • Do not use plain water alone or alcohol-base coolant (antifreeze) products. Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be compatible with the TPIM coolant and may plug the TPIM cooler. • This vehicle has not been designed for use with Propylene Glycol based coolant (antifreeze). Use of Propylene Glycol based coolant (antifreeze) is not recommended. Adding Coolant Your vehicle has been built with an improved TPIM coolant (antifreeze) that allows extended maintenance intervals. This coolant (antifreeze) can be used up to 5 Years or 102,000 miles (170 000 km) before replacement. To prevent reducing this extended maintenance period, it is important that you use the same coolant (antifreeze) throughout the life of your vehicle. CAUTION! • Mixing of coolant (antifreeze) other than specified HOAT TPIM coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and may decrease corrosion protection. If a non-HOAT coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into the cooling system in an emergency, it should be replaced with the specified coolant (antifreeze) as soon as possible. (Continued)

remove all deposits and chemicals. Properly dispose of
old coolant (antifreeze) solution.
Selection Of Coolant
Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in this
section for the correct fluid type.
CAUTION!
•
Mixing of coolant (antifreeze) other than specified
HOAT TPIM coolant (antifreeze), may result in
engine damage and may decrease corrosion pro-
tection.
If
a

coolant
(antifreeze)
is
introduced into the cooling system in an emer-
