64. Add coolant to the maximum level
mark, and then install the coolant
reservoir cap. WARNING! Re-
move only the coolant reservoir
cap. Never attempt to remove
the ra diator cap when the en-
g ine is hot.
[EWA15162]
NOTICE: If
coolant is not availa ble, use dis-
tille d water or soft tap water in-
stea d. Do not use har d water or
salt water since it is harmful to
the en gine. If water has been
use d instea d of coolant, replace
it with coolant as soon as possi-
b le, otherwise the coolin g sys-
tem will not be protected a
g ainst frost an d corrosion. If
water has been adde d to the
coolant, have a Yamaha d ealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possi ble,
otherwise the effectiveness of
the coolant will b e reduced.

613. Install the radiator cap.
14. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
15. Start the engine, let it idle for sev-
eral minutes, and then turn it off.
16. Remove the radiator cap to check the coolant level in the radiator. If
necessary, add sufficient coolant
until it reaches the top of the radi-
ator, and then install the radiator
cap, radiator cap retainer and ra-
diator cap retaining bolt. 17. 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.
18. Route the coolant reservoir breather hose through the guide
as shown. 19. Start the engine, and then check
the vehicle for coolant leakage. If
coolant is leaking, have a Yamaha
dealer check the cooling system.
20. Install the cowlings.
