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.

• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage. 
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak- age at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop 
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-
ified level, if necessary.
