## Structure

• A wax-type thermostat with a jiggle pin has been adopted.
• The plastic thermostat case has a built-in stainless steel thermostat body with excellent corrosion resistance.
• When the engine coolant temperature is below 75.0°C {167°F}, the thermostat stops the radiator coolant circulation from the radiator for improved engine warming performance. When the engine coolant temperature is between 80.0 °C {176°F} and 84.0 °C {183.2°F}, the thermostat begins opening the valve and engine coolant flows from the radiator to stabilize engine coolant temperature.
