MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Engine Cooling System
WARNING
Escaping steam can cause severe burns. Never remove the
pressure cap while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the
engine to cool before removing the pressure cap.
Radiator Coolant Level
NOTE: This procedure is required only if
the cooling system has been
drained for maintenance and/or
repair. However, if the recovery
bottle has run dry, the level in
the radiator should be inspected
and coolant added if necessary.
1. Remove the front panel to access the
radiator pressure cap (1). Remove
the cap.
2. If coolant is low, use a funnel and
slowly add coolant through the
radiator filler neck.
3. Reinstall the pressure cap and secure the front panel.
4. Fill the coolant recovery bottle to the upper mark on the bottle.
5. Check the coolant level in the bottle frequently, adding coolant as
needed until the level stabilizes.
NOTE: Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the
recovery system to function properly. Contact your dealer for
the correct replacement part.
