4. Usage and Maintenance
Caution
●
Do not mix the original coolant with
other unrecognized coolant.
Otherwise, the engine may be damaged
seriously.
●
If the coolant is needed to be added,
only add new coolant. The coolant
must meet the provisions of this
Manual; do not add other types of
coolant even if no DF-6 coolant can be
purchased temporarily. If necessary,
add pure water temporarily. But, to
restore the normal concentration, you
must add the recommended coolant as
required as soon as possible.
●
If the coolant in the coolant expansion
tank discolors, and no coolant of other
color mixes, replace the coolant
periodically according to the
requirements of the Warranty Manual.
Caution
●
Do not add coolant until the engine
cools down. After adding coolant, make
sure the coolant level is at or below the
MAX mark. Otherwise, the excessive
coolant will spill out of the cooling
system when the engine becomes hot.
●
If a large amount of coolant is
consumed, add cold coolant after the
engine cools down; otherwise, the
engine may be damaged. Great loss of
coolant implies a leakage failure in the
cooling system. Go to GAC MOTOR
dealer to inspect the cooling system as
soon as possible, so as to avoid
damaging the engine.
●
Collect and dispose the used coolant in
accordance with environmental
protection laws and regulations.
