Caution
Using high pressure water sprays, such
as from a car wash facility or household
pressure washer, can damage the
radiator fins, cause leaks and impair the
radiator's efficiency.
Do not obstruct or deflect airflow
through the radiator by installing
unauthorized accessories, either in
front of the radiator or behind the
cooling fan. Interference with the
radiator airflow can cause overheating,
potentially resulting in engine damage.
Check the radiator hoses for cracks or
deterioration,
and
tightness in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements. Have your
authorized Triumph dealer replace any
defective items.
Check the radiator grille and fins for
obstructions by insects, leaves or mud.
Clean off any obstructions with a
stream of low pressure water.
