CAUTION! (Continued)
• Do not use water alone or alcohol-based coolant
(antifreeze) products. Do not use additional rust
inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be
compatible with the radiator coolant and may
plug the radiator.
• 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
(antifreeze) 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 Or-
ganic 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
deionized water when mixing the water and coolant
(antifreeze) 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
maintain the proper level of protection against freezing
according to the temperatures occurring in the area
where the vehicle is operated.
NOTE: Mixing coolant (antifreeze) types will decrease
the life of the Power Electronics and Battery Thermal
Management Systems coolant (antifreeze) and will re-
quire more frequent coolant (antifreeze) changes.
