OPERATION
Coolant Level
DO NOT remove the radiator pressure cap (6), illust. Z22468
from a hot engine. Wait until the temperature is below 50°C
before removing the pressure cap (6). Failure to do so can
result in personal injury from heated coolant spray or steam.
Turn the radiator cap (6) slowly counterclockwise to the
safety stop to allow the pressure to escape, then continue to
turn until cap is free to be removed.
The coolant level should be in the upper field of the sight gauges
(4). If necessary add coolant.
REMARK
Refer to the Engine Manual for the correct coolant composi-
tion.
