Make sure it is the same type you already have in it now. Either green for the less expensive or red for the very expensive coolant.
And, THAT is the problem. Color alone does not tell you the coolant chemistry. Sadly, no industry standards here.
IMO, if going to change coolant anyway in a few months, do NOT take a chance on mixing coolant chemistries. And, if the standard diesel coolant, if you are even thinking about using it over the winter, check the pH with test strips. Poor economy to wait and have the radiator eaten by acidic coolant!
