amount of water.
Before using the vehicle, check that the cooling
surface of the radiator, located behind the front
wheel, is not even partially clogged by leaves,
paper, mud, etc.
Coolant temperature indicator
If the temperature is too high, the alarm condition is
light on the display (7-Fig.13) on the right hand side of
the instrument board.
In this case, stop the vehicle immediately. Allow the
engine to cool down and check:
• that there are no objects clogging the cooling
surface of the radiator located behind the front
wheel (remove them);
• that there are no leaks inside the circuit with
topping up).
For any trouble inside the cooling circuit, we
advise you to contact an Authorised MALAGUTI
Service Centre for an extensive check as soon
as possible, even if the cause of the trouble has
already been removed.
