4. Add coolant or distilled water to
raise the coolant to the maximum
level mark, and install the cool-
ant reservoir cap and the panel.
NOTICE: If coolant is not avail-
able, use distilled water or soft
tap water instead. Do not use
hard water or salt water since
it is harmful to the engine. If
6-14
water has been used instead of
coolant, replace it with coolant
as soon as possible, otherwise
the cooling system will not be
protected against frost and cor-
1
rosion. If water has been added
to the coolant, have a Yamaha
dealer check the antifreeze
content of the coolant as soon
as possible, otherwise the ef-
fectiveness of the coolant will
be reduced.
Coolant reservoir capacity:
0.26 L (0.27 US qt, 0.23 Imp.qt)
Changing the coolant
The coolant must be changed at the
intervals specifi ed in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
Have a Yamaha dealer change the
coolant. WARNING! Never attempt
to remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot.
