To prevent rust formation and freezing of coolant inside the passages of radiator crankcase and cylinder head use premixed coolant as recommended. It is recommended that the entire cooling system should be drained and filled with fresh premixed coolant. Coolant should be drained and replenished every two years or at every 50,000 km whichever is earlier.
