CAUTION! (Continued)
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 cooling systems that
allow extended maintenance intervals. This coolant (an-
tifreeze) can be used up to ten years or 150,000 miles
(240,000 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.
Please review these recommendations for using Organic
Additive Technology (OAT) coolant (antifreeze).
When adding coolant (antifreeze):
The manufacturer recommends using MOPAR®
Antifreeze/Coolant 10 Year/150,000 Mile Formula
OAT (Organic Additive Technology).
Mix a minimum solution of 50% OAT coolant (anti-
freeze) and distilled water. Use higher concentrations
(not to exceed 70%) if temperatures below -34ºF (-37ºC)
are anticipated.
Use only high purity water such as distilled or deion-
ized water when mixing the water and coolant (anti-
freeze) solution. The use of lower quality water will
reduce the amount of corrosion protection in the
cooling systems.
Please note that it is the owner’s responsibility to main-
tain the proper level of protection against freezing ac-
cording to the temperatures occurring in the area where
the vehicle is operated.
