G12 coolant ratio

1
I've just bought some G12 coolant (was told that G11 no longer available), the label on the
back gives three different ratios but the temps are from -25°C to -52°C. Not exactly the day
to day conditions here in Oz!

Is this the stuff to use and if so what ratio for temps in +30°C range?

Cheers
Bill

Bill,
 
The options are for countries that experience below freezing overnight.  Since we don't get down to more than a few degrees below freezing overnight anywhere in Australia, the weakest ratio is fine. 
 
The second but equally important function of the coolant is to prevent rust anywhere in the cooling system.  This is adequately dealt with by the weakest ratio.

I hope that you mean G12+ and not G12.

Make sure that you use with distilled or demineralised water.
