Yeah it's the same as a car but there are two types.

Antifreeze - this is the pure stuff which should be diluted with distilled water. Usually 50-50 or 60%water - 40% antifreeze. So if you are topping up the system with pure antifreeze, you should add water as well. (distilled or deionized water will produce less muck in the cooling system than tap water will.)

Coolant is already diluted and you shouldn't add more water. But usually works out more expensive if you're draining and refilling the whole cooling system.

Scrap the cap!
