Maintenance and Specifications<br />

Recycled engine coolant<br />

Ford Motor Company does NOT recommend the use of recycled engine<br />

coolant in vehicles originally equipped with Motorcraft Premium Gold<br />

Engine Coolant since a Ford-approved recycling process is not yet<br />

available.<br />

Used engine coolant should be disposed of in an appropriate<br />

manner. Follow your community’s regulations and standards for recycling<br />

and disposing of automotive fluids.<br />

Coolant refill capacity<br />

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

to Maintenance product specifications and capacities in this chapter.<br />

Fill your engine coolant reservoir as outlined in Adding engine coolant<br />

in this section.<br />

Severe climates<br />

If you drive in extrem<strong>el</strong>y cold climates (less than –34° F [–36° C ]):<br />

• It may be necessary to increase the coolant concentration<br />

above 50%.<br />

• NEVER increase the coolant concentration above 60%.<br />

• Increased engine coolant concentrations above 60% will<br />

decrease the overheat protection characteristics of the engine<br />

coolant and may cause engine damage.<br />

• Refer to the chart on the coolant container to ensure the<br />

coolant concentration in your vehicle will provide adequate<br />

freeze protection at the temperatures in which you drive in the<br />

winter months.<br />

If you drive in extrem<strong>el</strong>y hot climates:<br />

• It is still necessary to maintain the coolant concentration<br />

above 40%.<br />

• NEVER decrease the coolant concentration b<strong>el</strong>ow 40%.<br />

• Decreased engine coolant concentrations b<strong>el</strong>ow 40% will<br />

decrease the corrosion protection characteristics of the engine<br />

coolant and may cause engine damage.<br />

• Decreased engine coolant concentrations b<strong>el</strong>ow 40% will<br />

decrease the freeze protection characteristics of the engine<br />

coolant and may cause engine damage.<br />
