1. RELATIONSHIP OF SUBARU COOLANT
CONCENTRATION AND FREEZING TEM-
PERATURE
The concentration and safe operating temperature
of the SUBARU coolant is shown in the diagram.
Measuring the temperature and specific gravity of
the coolant will provide this information.
[Example]
If the coolant temperature is 25
°
C (77
°
F) and its
specific gravity is 1.054, the concentration is 45%
(point A), the safe operating temperature is
−
14
°
C
(7
°
F) (point B), and the freezing temperature is
−
20
°
C (
−
4
°
F) (point C).
2. PROCEDURE TO ADJUST THE CON-
CENTRATION OF THE COOLANT
To adjust the concentration of the coolant accord-
ing to temperature, find the proper fluid concentra-
tion in the above diagram and replace the
necessary amount of coolant with an undiluted so-
lution of SUBARU genuine coolant (concentration
50%).
The amount of coolant that should be replaced can
be determined using the diagram.
[Example]
Assume that the coolant concentration must be in-
creased from 25% to 40%. Find point A, where the
25% line of coolant concentration intersects with
the 40% curve of the necessary coolant concentra-
tion, and read the scale on the vertical axis of the
graph at height A. The quantity of coolant to be
drained is 2.1
2
(2.2 US qt, 1.8 Imp qt). Drain 2.1
2
(2.2 US qt, 1.8 Imp qt) of coolant from the cooling
system and add 2.1
2
(2.2 US qt, 1.8 Imp qt) of the
undiluted solution of SUBARU coolant.
If a coolant concentration of 50% is needed, drain
all the coolant and refill with the undiluted solution
only.
