Assuming you are just going to add a few ounces bottled water or distilled would suffice. This little amount should not have an impact to the coolant plumbing if bottled water is used.

They say 'distilled' water because distilled water is a constant anywhere in the world, has no deposits and is always the same thing and is always safe. If it just said clean water then it would be open for interpretation. Some would add river water, salt water, you name it.

Now if you were doing a complete flush and replace then, by all means, definitely use distilled for your 50/50 mix.
