Engine coolant level check
Check the coolant level of the reserve tank
when the engine is cold.
Check if the level is between the "F (full)' and
"L (low)" lines.
If the coolant level becomes low due to natu­
ral evaporation, add soft water only. If a
substantial amount of coolant is lost, add
long-life coolant.
If the reserve tank should become empty, fill
the radiator as well as the reserve tank with
coolant.
Wipe the spilt ·coolant away and install the
reserve tank and radiator caps securely.
