Anti-Freeze Concentration

09-2

Fluids

Anti-freeze
Use Havoline Extended Life Coolant (XLC), or any 
ethylene glycol based anti-freeze  (containing no 
methanol) with only Organic Acid Technology (OAT) 
corrosion inhibitors, to protect the cooling system

CAUTION: No other anti-freeze should be used 
with Havoline Extended Life Coolant.

 The cooling system should be drained, flushed and 
refilled with the correct amount of anti-freeze solution 
at the intervals given on the Service Maintenance 
Check Sheet.

After filling with anti-freeze solution, attach a warning 
label to a prominent position on the vehicle stating 
the type of anti-freeze contained in the cooling 
system to ensure that the correct type is used for 
topping-up. 

Brake/Clutch fluid
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid. 

PAS fluid
Use Texaco cold climate power assisted steering 
fluid PSF 14315.

ACE fluid
Where ambient temperature falls below -20

°

 C (-4

°

F), use only Texaco cold climate power assisted 
steering fluid PSF 14315. Where ambient 
temperature remains above -20

°

 C (-4

°

 F), use either 

Texaco cold climate power assisted steering fluid , 
Dexron 11 or Dexron 111 non-synthetic fluid.

Air conditioning
Use only refrigerant R134a.

Refrigerant oil
Use only Nippon Denso ND-oil 8.

Refrigerant oil absorbs water and must not be stored 
for long periods. Do not pour unused oil back into the 
container.

NOTE: The total quantity of refrigerant oil in the 
system is 180 ml.

CAUTION: Do not use any other type of 
refrigerant oil.

Anti-Freeze Concentration

The overall anti-freeze concentration should not fall, 
by volume,  below 50% to ensure that the anti-
corrosion properties of the coolant are maintained. 
Anti-freeze concentrations greater than 60% are not 
recommended as cooling efficiency will be impaired.

The following recommended quantities of anti-freeze 
will provide frost protection to -48
