NOTE:The coolant should be between theminimum and maximum level marks.
3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
reservoir cap.4. Add coolant or distilled water to
raise the coolant to the maximum
level mark, install the coolant res-
ervoir cap.
CAUTION:
ECA10471


If coolant is not available, use
distilled water or soft tap water
instead. Do not use hard water
or salt water since it is harmful
to the engine.


If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-wise the cooling system will not
be protected against frost and
corrosion.


If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the effectiveness ofthe coolant will be reduced.WARNING
EWA10380
Never attempt to remove the radiatorcap when the engine is hot.NOTE:

The radiator fan is automatically
switched on or off according to the
coolant temperature in the radia-
tor.


If the engine overheats, see page6-40 for further instructions.

To change the coolant
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand and let the engine cool if
necessary.

recommended coolant into the ra-
diator and reservoir.

12. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
13. Install the radiator cap, radiator
cap retainer and radiator cap re-
taining bolt.14. Start the engine, let it idle for sev-
eral minutes, and then turn it off.
15. Remove the radiator cap to check
the coolant level in the radiator. If
necessary, add sufficient coolant
until it reaches the top of the radia-
tor, and then install the radiator
cap, radiator cap retainer and radi-
ator cap retaining bolt.
16. Check the coolant level in the res-
ervoir. If necessary, remove the
coolant reservoir cap, add coolant
to the maximum level mark, and
then install the cap.
17. Start the engine, and then check
the vehicle for coolant leakage. If
coolant is leaking, have a Yamaha
dealer check the cooling system.
