necessary, add enough 50/50 concentration of engine coolant and

distilled water to bring the liquid level to the proper level.

If you have to add more than 1.0 quart (1.0 liter) of engine coolant per

month, have your authorized dealer check the engine cooling system.

Your cooling system may have a leak. Operating an engine with a low

level of coolant can result in engine overheating and possible engine

damage.

Recycled engine coolant

Ford Motor Company does NOT recommend the use of recycled engine

coolant in vehicles originally equipped with Motorcraft Premium Gold

Engine Coolant since a Ford-approved recycling process is not yet

available.

Used engine coolant should be disposed of in an appropriate

manner. Follow your community’s regulations and standards for recycling

and disposing of automotive fluids.

Coolant refill capacity

To find out how much fluid your vehicle’s cooling system can hold, refer

to Refill capacities in this section.

Fill your engine coolant reservoir as outlined in Adding engine coolant

in this section.

Severe climates

If you drive in extremely cold climates (less than –34° F [–36° C ]):

• It may be necessary to increase the coolant concentration

above 50%.

• NEVER increase the coolant concentration above 60%.

• Increased engine coolant concentrations above 60% will

decrease the overheat protection characteristics of the engine

coolant and may cause engine damage.

• Refer to the chart on the coolant container to ensure the

coolant concentration in your vehicle will provide adequate

freeze protection at the temperatures in which you drive in the

winter months.

If you drive in extremely hot climates:

• It is still necessary to maintain the coolant concentration

above 40%.
