How to Check if the Antifreeze is Low?

[DelAsher]

There are two methods to check if the antifreeze is low: 1. Check the antifreeze warning light on the dashboard; 2. Observe the fluid level in the reservoir tank. The full name of antifreeze is antifreeze coolant, which refers to a coolant with antifreeze functionality. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing and expanding in cold winter conditions, which could otherwise crack the radiator or damage the engine cylinder block or head. Antifreeze offers multiple benefits, including freeze protection in winter, boil-over prevention in summer, and year-round protection against scale and corrosion. Guidelines for selecting antifreeze: 1. Choose the freezing point based on the ambient temperature conditions where the vehicle is used. The antifreeze grade corresponds to its freezing point, which should be approximately 10 degrees Celsius lower than the local winter's lowest temperature. 2. Select antifreeze with rust prevention, corrosion inhibition, and descaling functions.
