11.2.1 Cooling system

The antifreeze liquid is advised for all kinds of climates: it increases the working temperature range, lowering the freezing point and increasing the boiling point.
When the temperature comes close to 0°C it is necessary, in order to avoid the risk of freezing, to make sure that the cooling lines are filled with antifreeze mixture. If not, replace the cooling liquid with such a mixture.
Before filling the system with antifreeze mix, it is necessary to wash the cooling circuit.
We recommend the use of antifreeze liquid.

ENVIRONMENT

Concentrated coolant must be treated as special waste.
When disposing of used coolant, abide by the regulations of the local authority.

CAUTION

Regularly check that all devices containing water are filled with the correct quantity of anti-freeze if necessary.
Each time that the outside temperature drops below 0°C the water (fresh or sea) inside the ducts may freeze and cause them to break.
All systems and equipment containing water, both sea water systems (engine cooling system, generator cooling system, etc..) and fresh water systems (windscreen wipers, fresh water pump, etc..) may run this risk.
