Maintenance Ready Mixed Ready mixed coolant contains 40% Volvo Penta Coolant / Volvo Penta Coolant VCS and 60% water. This mixture protects the engine against internal corrosion, cavitation and bursts due to freezing down to –28°C (– 18 F).

Coolant, Mixing The concentrated coolant must be mixed with pure water (distilled or de-ionized water) according to specifications; refer to Water Quality page 84.

WARNING! All coolant is hazardous and harmful to the environment. Do not consume. Coolant is flammable. IMPORTANT! Different kinds of coolant must not be mixed with each other! Mix: 40% concentrated coolant and 60% water This mixture protects against internal corrosion, cavitation and bursts due to freezing down to –28°C (– 18°F). A 60% glycol admix lowers the freezing point to –54 °C (–65 °F). Never mix more than 60% concentrate in the coolant. A greater concentration provides reduced cooling effect with the risk for overheating and reduced antifreeze protection. It is extremely important that the system be filled with the correct coolant concentration. Mix in a separate clean vessel before filling the cooling system. Make sure that the liquids mix.
