3. For additional assurance against freezing and rust, after draining, fill the cooling system
with propylene glycol mixed to the manufacturer's recommendation to protect engine
to the lowest temperature to which it will be exposed during freezing temperatures or
extended storage
IMPORTANT: Mercury MerCruiser requires that propylene glycol antifreeze, mixed to the
manufacturers instructions, be used in the seawater section of the cooling system for
freezing temperatures or extended storage. Make sure that the propylene glycol antifreeze
contains a rust inhibitor and is recommended for use in marine engines. Be certain to follow
the propylene glycol manufacturer's recommendations.
Battery Storage
Whenever the battery will be stored for an extended period of time, be sure the cells are
full of water and the battery is fully charged and in good operating condition. It should be
clean and free of leaks. Follow the battery manufacturer's instructions for storage.
