Handling notes for coolant
Coolant is potentially harmful and should be
handled with special care.
SIf coolant splashes in your eyes, thorough-
ly wash them with water and consult a doc-
tor.
SIf coolant splashes on your clothes, quick-
ly wash it away with water and then with
soap and water.
SIf coolant is swallowed, induce vomiting
and get immediate medical attention.
SAdding water instead of coolant lowers the
antifreeze content of the coolant. If water is
used instead of coolant check, and if nec-
essary, correct the antifreeze concentra-
tion of the coolant.
