00
not
use
or
mix
different
types
of
brake
fluid
such
as
silicone-based
and
petroleum-ba
s
ed
fluids
for
refilling

ENGINE COOLANT
Since antifreeze also has corrosion- and rust-inhibiting properties, always use engine coolant containing
antifreeze, even if the atmospheric temperature does
not
go below the freezing point.
Use an antifreeze designed f
or
aluminum radiator. SUZUKI recommends the use
of
SUZUK
I
COOLANT
antifreeze. if this is not available, use an equivalent antifreeze for aluminum radiators.
Mix only distilled
water
with the antifreeze. Other types
of
water
can corrode and clog the aluminum radiator.
Mix
distilled
water
and
antifreeze at a
ratio
of
50:50 -40:60.
For more information, ref
er
to page 5-3 in the Cooling System section.
I
CAUTION
I
The percentage
of
antifreeze
in
the
coolant
should
be
between
50
to
60%. If
the
percentage
of
antifreeze is above
or
below
this
range
the
coo
l
ant's
frost
protection
and
rust
-
inhibiting
capa-
bilities
will
be
reduced
.
Always
keep
the
antifreeze
content
above
50
% even
if
the
atmospher
ic
temperature
does
not
go
below
the
freezing
point.
