If the High Coolant Temperature
Indicator Lights

Taking Care of the Unexpected

Check for an oil leak.
Check the oil level. If necessary, add the recommended oil (page

)

to the upper level mark. If you must leave your ATV to get oil, secure
it as much as possible.

If you are able to resume riding, continue to monitor the high coolant
temperature indicator frequently.

Start the engine, and check that the high coolant temperature indicator
goes off.

If the reserve tank is low or empty, don’t ride without adding coolant
(page

). After adding coolant, turn the engine on and check the

high coolant temperature indicator.
If the indicator doesn’t turn off, do not ride. The engine needs repair.
Transport your ATV to a Honda dealer (page

).

If the temperature drops to normal, check the coolant level. If it has
gone down, add more coolant.

If there is an oil leak

do not ride the ATV until the leak is repaired by

Honda dealer (page

).

If there’s a mild coolant leak, you can ride for awhile, carefully
watching the indicator. Be prepared to stop and add more coolant or
water. If the leak is bad, transport your ATV to a Honda dealer (page

).
