Engine Coolant

The following explains your cooling system and how to

add coolant when it is low. If you have a problem

with engine overheating, see Engine Overheating on

page 5-25.

A 50/50 mixture of clean, drinkable water and proper

coolant will:

• Give freezing protection down to −22°F (−30°C).

• Give boiling protection up to 268°F (131°C)

• Protect against rust and corrosion.

• Help keep the proper engine temperature.

• Let the warning lights and gages work as they

should.

What to Use

Use a 50/50 mixture of clean, drinkable water and coolant

that meets GM Speciﬁcation 1825M, which will not

damage aluminum parts. You can also use a recycled

coolant conforming to GM Speciﬁcation 1825M with a

complete coolant ﬂush and reﬁll. If you use this coolant

mixture, you do not need to add anything else.

For protection in extremely cold weather conditions,

use a 40/60 mixture of clean, drinkable water and proper

coolant.

{CAUTION:

Adding only plain water to your cooling

system can be dangerous. Plain water, or

some other liquid such as alcohol, can boil

before the proper coolant mixture will. Your

vehicle’s coolant warning system is set for the

proper coolant mixture. With plain water or the

wrong mixture, your engine could get too hot

but you would not get the overheat warning.

Your engine could catch ﬁre and you or others

could be burned. Use a 50/50 mixture of clean,

drinkable water and the proper coolant.

Notice: If you use an improper coolant mixture,

your engine could overheat and be badly damaged.

The repair cost would not be covered by your

warranty. Too much water in the mixture can freeze

and crack the engine, radiator, heater core and

other parts.

If you have to add coolant more than four times a year,

have your dealer check your cooling system.

Notice: If you use the proper coolant, you do not

have to add extra inhibitors or additives which claim

to improve the system. These can be harmful.
