REMOVAL
1. Remove radiator cap and drain coolant from radiator. Refer to
CO-12, "Changing Engine Coolant".
CAUTION:
• Perform this step when the engine is cold.
• Do not spill coolant on the drive belt.
2. Remove front air duct. Refer to EM-84, "Removal and Installation"
.
3. Disconnect coolant reservoir hose from the radiator.
4. Remove fender protector side cover (LH/RH). Refer to EXT-26, "FENDER PROTECTOR : Exploded
View".
5. Disconnect radiator hose (upper) and radiat or hose (lower) from the radiator.
CAUTION:
Do not allow the coolant to contact the drive belt.
NOTE:
The radiator hose clamps on the radiator hose (upper ) and on the radiator hose (lower), are not serviced
separately. Radiator hose clamps are part of the radiator hose assembly and serviced as one unit with the
radiator hose.
6. Disconnect the CVT oil cooler hoses.
7. Remove the front bumper fascia. Refer to EXT-17, "Removal and Installation"
.
8. Remove A/C condenser. Refer to HA-30, "COMPRESSOR : Removal and Installation"
.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage condenser core.
9. Remove the radiator mounts (upper).
10. Remove radiator. CAUTION:
Do not damage or scratch the radiator core when removing.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• After installation, refill coolant and check for leaks. Refer to CO-12, "Changing Engine Coolant"
and CO-11,
"System Inspection".
CAUTION:
Do not spill coolant in engi ne compartment. Use a shop cloth to absorb coolant.
InspectionINFOID:0000000009460394
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Check that the reservoir tank cap is tightened.
• Check for leakage of engine coolant using Tool (B) and suitable tool (A). Refer to CO-11, "System Inspection"
.
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap wh en the engine is hot. Seri-
ous burns could occur from high pressure coolant escaping
from the radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.
• Start and warm up the engine. Visually check that there is no leakage of engine coolant and CVT fluid.

PRECAUTIONS
4. Apply the liquid gasket using suitable tool without breaks to the
specified location.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply the
liquid gasket to the groove.
• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the liquid gasket inside the holes. If specified, it should be applied outside the holes.
Make sure to read the text of this manual.
• Within five minutes of the liquid gasket application, install the mating component.
• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill the engine with the specified oil and coolant. Refer to MA-11,
"FOR USA AND CANADA : Fluids and Lubricants".
CAUTION:
If there are more specific instruct ions in the procedures contained in this manual concerning liquid
gasket applicatio n, observe them.

• Do not allow the coolant to
contact the drive belts.
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
5. When draining all of the coolant in the system for engine removal or repair, open all of the drain plugs (A-D) on the cylin-
der block.
6. Check the drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corro- sion or discoloration.
If the coolant is contaminated, flush the engine cooling system.
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install the radiator drain plug. If the cooling syst em was drained completely, install the reservoir tank and
the cylinder block drain plugs.
• The radiator must be complete ly empty of coolant and water.
• Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder block drain plug. Use Genuine High Performance
Thread Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-21, "Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants"
.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper sealing washers.
2. If disconnected, reattach the upper radiator hose at the engine side.
3. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heat er ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.

WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure
engine coolant escaping from the radiator. Wrap a th ick cloth around the cap. Slowly push down and
turn it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape. Carefully remove the cap by pushing it down
and turning it all the way.
