LEVEL CHECK
Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within “MIN” to
“MAX” when engine is cool.
Adjust engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING RADIATOR SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system with the
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) and the radiator
cap tester adapter (special service tool).
WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high pressure engine coolant
escaping from radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator
damage.
NOTE:
In a case that engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.
If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
Changing Engine CoolantEBS00BAZ
WARNING:
To avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine is hot.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove radiator cap. First, turn radiator cap a quarter
of a turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn the cap all the way.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Remove engine undercover.
2. Open radiator drain plug at the bottom of radiator, and remove
radiator cap.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive
belts.
Cover the exhaust tube heat shield to prevent from
splashing engine coolant.
When draining all engine coolant in the system, open water drain plug on engine cylinder block. Refer
to EM-231, "
DISASSEMBLY".
3. Remove reservoir tank, drain engine coolant, then clean reservoir tank.
4. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
