Antifreeze - the general information

Do not suppose antifreeze hit on open sites of a body and the painted surfaces of the car. Casual splashes and passage traces immediately wash off a plentiful quantity of water. IN NO EVENT never leave antifreeze stored to open container and do not leave a pool of the spilt cooler on a floor of a working platform/garage. The sweetish smell of antifreeze can easily draw to itself attention of animals and children. Antifreeze is very poisonous also its hit in an organism even in small amounts can lead to a lethal outcome. Familiarise with requirements of the local legislation to rules of recycling of the fulfilled cooler In many regions the system of special places of acceptance is created. At all do not merge a cooler on the earth or in water drain system.

Now release of nontoxical antifreeze is adjusted - ask in shops of automobile accessories - however even certain demands are made to it on recycling.

Store antifreeze in tight container and immediately eliminate the found out leaks of system of cooling of your car.

Refuelling of system of cooling is made by a water and antifreeze mix on base этиленгликоля that provides decrease in a point of its freezing to-30 With and more low, depending on environmental conditions of area of operation of the car. Besides, use of such mix provides protection of internal surfaces of system against corrosion and raises a cooler boiling point.

The system should опоражниваться, be washed out under a pressure and be filled with a fresh cooler according to the schedule of routine maintenance of the car (the Head of Adjustment and routine maintenance). Use of the old or polluted antifreeze with the big share of probability leads to a fast exit of system out of operation and causes development of its corrosion and a scaling. To plant antifreeze follows only the distilled water.

Before starting antifreeze addition check up a condition of all шланговых system connections. Antifreeze very much текуч also possesses ability to filter through the smallest thinnesses and apertures. In normal conditions the engine cooler should not to be spent, therefore in case of falling of level of a cooler immediately it is necessary to find out the reason of leak and to eliminate it.

The exact structure охладительной mixes depends on weather conditions in which car operation is necessary. The mix should consist at least on 50 % of antifreeze, however its maintenance never should exceed 70 %. Before that to make having added a cooler consult the map requirements to its structure on a label on container. Ареометры for measurement of relative density of a cooler it is possible to get practically in any shop of automobile accessories. Try to use that type of antifreeze which is recommended to application by car firm-manufacturer (see Specifications to the Head of Adjustment and routine maintenance).
