Details

Prime® Antifreeze/Coolant Conventional Green Low Silicate Formulation is an ethylene glycol based product which meets or exceeds ASTM requirements for use in cars, light duty and heavy duty trucks. It contains inhibitors to prevent rust and corrosion for all cooling system metals including aluminum. A 50/50 mixture of Prime® Antifreeze/Coolant Conventional Green Low Silicate Formulation and water provides freeze protection to -34F and raises the cooling system boiling point to 265F when a 15 lb. pressure cap in good condition is used. When used as directed, Prime® Antifreeze/Coolant Conventional Green Low Silicate Formulation provides full protection for a minimum of one year. For Heavy Duty applications the use of Supplemental Coolant Additives (SCAs) is recommended.

Directions

Caution: To avoid serious burns, do not remove radiator cap from a hot cooling system. Check owner's manual for any special cooling system service instructions. Important Safety Information: Antifreeze/coolant is poisonous. Clean up any leaks or spills immediately. Tighten the child resistant cap and store antifreeze away from children and animals. Do not store antifreeze in open or unlabeled containers. Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water after use.

Inspect. Inspect system carefully to ensure that all components (hoses, clamps, etc) are in satisfactory condition and that there are no leaks. Drain/Flush. Completely drain the entire cooling system. Always properly dispose of used product. Flush cooling system thoroughly with clean tap water. If cooling system is dirty, flush system with a quality radiator cleaner to remove rust, scale and sediments.

Mix. Based on cooling system capacity, generally given in the owner's manual, determine from the chart on this container the quantity of Prime® Antifreeze/Coolant Conventional Green Low Silicate Formulation required to provide desired freeze protection. At least a 50/50 mixture of this product and water is recommended. Note: Maximum recommended mixture strength is two parts of this product and one part water.

Fill. Pour the desired quantity of Prime® Antifreeze/Coolant Conventional Green Low Silicate Formulation into the cooling system, add clean water to bring mixture to the level recommended by the manufacturer. To assure proper mixing and to release entrapped air, run engine with heater temperature control on high until normal engine operating temperature is reached. Turn off engine and allow to cool. Recheck coolant level and add water if necessary. For Heavy Duty applications the use of Supplemental Coolant Additives (ASCs) is recommended. Meets ASTM D-3306, and ASTM D-4985.

When disposing of used antifreeze/coolant: Follow local laws and regulations. If required, dispose at facilities licensed to accept household hazardous waste. If permitted, dispose in sanitary sewer systems. Do not discard into storm sewers, septic systems or onto the ground.

Warnings

Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Contains Ethylene Glycol (107-21-1), Diethylene Glycol (111-46-6), Water (7732-18-5), and proprietary corrosion inhibitors. Do not drink antifreeze or solution. Do not breathe mist or vapors. Avoid prolonged exposure. Avoid skin and eye contact. First Aid Treatment: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Immediately call a Poison Control Center or hospital emergency department. If breathing is affected, move into fresh air. If in eyes, rinse thoroughly with water for 15 minutes. If on skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash skin well with soap and water. If irritation persists, call a doctor. Ethylene glycol causes birth defects in laboratory animals. Solution is poisonous to animals. Keep out of reach of children.
