Double check but if my memory serves me correctly, the coolant system has a capacity of around 5.5 litres. The recommended mix ratio is 50:50 of G12++ or G13 to water.

Yeah it's just over 5 litres. It comes premixed or not so look out for that when buying so you know if you need to buy the water with it.
