COOLING SYSTEM

Coolant Level

Check the coolant level and replenish the radiator reserve
tank as necessary.
If the coolant level falls below the "MIN" line, carefully
check the cooling system for leakage. Then add enough
coolant to bring the level up to the "MAX" line.

Engine coolant change procedure

1. To change engine coolant, make sure that the engine
is cool.
WARNING:
When the coolant is heated to a high
temperature, be sure not to loosen or remove
the radiator cap. Otherwise you might get
scalded by hot vapor or boiling water. To open
the radiator cap, put a piece of thick cloth on the
cap and loosen the cap slowly to reduce the

pressure when the coolant has become cooler.
2
Open radiator cap and drain the cooling system by
loosening the drain valve on the radiator and on the
cylinder body.
