DASCOOL® MAXCOOL® Antifreeze | Coolant

Changing Your Antifreeze And Coolant.

DASCOOL® MAXCOOL® knows how crucial routine maintenance of your cooling system is to the life of your vehicle. To properly maintenance your vehicle, follow the steps below.
If your coolant looks dirty, you need to replace it.
Dirty coolant is no longer effective, which means corrosion, rust and damage happen more rapidly, along with reduced fluid flow and the risk of clogging.
Drain and fill and flush and fill are the correct ways to deal with dirty coolant.
Check your manufacturer’s maintenance schedule for more information.
DRAIN the cooling system to remove loose rust and sediment from the radiator. Follow owner’s manual.
FLUSH the cooling system using clean water only. We do not recommend to use any cooling system cleaners.
FILL with DASCOOL® or MAXCOOL® concentrate and distilled/de-ionized water to achieve the freeze-up/boil-over protection.

Top-off:
Low coolant means less heat transfer, which in turn risks the engine overheating.
Too much coolant also risks damage to the system, as coolant needs room to expand when cold.
Without this room, parts can become cracked and damaged. Make sure you regularly check your reservoir, and top off to the fill line as needed.

For Vehicles with Expansion Tank:
REMOVE pressure cap WITH THE ENGINE COLD.
Once you have pre-diluted DASCOOL® or MAXCOOL® coolant, fill the cooling system with the 50/50 or 30/70 mixture of Antifreeze/Coolant to “cold” fill line.
REPLACE cap securely.

For Vehicles with Recovery Bottle and Pressure Cap on Radiator:
REMOVE radiator cap WITH THE ENGINE COLD.
Pre-diluted  DASCOOL® or MAXCOOL® to a mixture required and fill the  Antifreeze/Coolant within one inch [25mm] of the top of the radiator cap.
TOP OFF recovery bottle to “cold” fill line.

For Australian conditions We recommend a 30/70 mixing ratio.

Safety Direction / First Aid

SAFETY DIRECTION: : Harmful if swallowed. DO NOT SWALLOW. Keep out of reach of children. Not to be used as a food container.

If spilt on paintwork, wash off immediately with water.

To protect the environment, dispose of used coolant in a safe manner or as advised by the Environmental Protection Agency.

FIRST AID: If poisoning occurs contact a doctor or the Poisons Information Centre in Australia 131 126 or New Zealand 0800 764 766. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. If in eyes, hold eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously with running water. If skin contact occurs, flush with running water.
