EAS2GC1082CHECKING THE COOLANT LEVELEWA
WARNING
If coolant seems hot, do not remove the ra-
diator cap.
1. Stand the vehicle upright on a level surface.
2. Remove:• Radiator cap “1”
3. Check: • Coolant levelMaximum level “a” or below Add coolant
up to the maximum level.
ECA
NOTICE
• Adding water instead of coolant lowers the
antifreeze content. If, therefore, water is
used instead of coolant, check, and if nec-
essary, adjust the antifreeze concentra-
tion.
• Use only distilled water. However, if dis- tilled water is not available, soft water may
be used.
4. Start the engine, warm this up for 3 minutes, and then stop it.
TIP
This model is equipped with an engine auto-
stop system. The engine stops automatically if
left idling for 7 minutes. If the engine stops,
push the start switch or push down the kick-
starter lever to restart the engine. 5. Check:
• Coolant level
TIP
Before checking the coolant level, wait a few
minutes until the coolant has settled.

3. Remove:• Radiator capSlowly loosen the radiator cap to drain cool-
ant.
TIP
When the radiator cap is loosened, coolant will
gush out transversely; therefore, bring the con-
tainer near to the outlet.
4. Thoroughly flush the cooling system with
clean tap water.
5. Install:
• Copper washer
• Coolant drain bolt
6. Pour coolant.

WARNING
• If coolant splashes in your eyes, thorough- ly wash them with water and consult a
doctor.
• If coolant splashes on your clothes, quick-
ly wash it away with water and then with
soap and water.
• If coolant is swallowed, induce vomiting
and get immediate medical attention.
ECA
NOTICE
• Adding water instead of coolant lowers the
antifreeze content of the coolant. If water
is used instead of coolant check, and if
necessary, correct the antifreeze concen-
tration of the coolant.
• Use only distilled water. However, if dis-
tilled water is not available, soft water may
be used.
• If coolant comes into contact with painted
surfaces, immediately wash them with wa-
ter.
• Do not mix different types of antifreeze.
7. Install:• Radiator cap 8. Start the engine, warm this up for 3 minutes,
stop it, and then wait for it to cool down.
TIP
This model is equipped with an engine auto-
stop system. The engine stops automatically if
left idling for 7 minutes. If the engine stops,
push the start switch or push down the kick-
starter lever to restart the engine.
9. Check:• Coolant levelRefer to “CHECKING THE COOLANT LEV-
EL” on page 3-10.

a. Install the radiator cap tester adapter “2” and the radiator cap tester “3” to the radiator cap
“1,” and activate the tester to check whether
it can stay for 5 to 10 seconds within stan-
dard pressure values.
TIP
Before attaching the cap to the tester, apply
water to its sealing surface.
No stay Replace.

EAS2GC1087CHECKING THE COOLANT CIRCULATORY
SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
1. Check:• Coolant level
2. Install: • Radiator cap tester “1”
• Adapter “2”
3. Activate the tester to apply the test pressure.
ECA
NOTICE
• Do not apply such a high pressure as ex- ceeds the test pressure.
• Make sure that a checkup after the cylin-
der head gasket is replaced is made after 3
minutes of warm-up.
• Make sure that coolant is filled up to the
upper level beforehand.
TIP
This model is equipped with an engine auto-
stop system. The engine stops automatically if
left idling for 7 minutes. If the engine stops,
push the start switch or push down the kick-
starter lever to restart the engine.
4. Check:
• Pressure valueNo stay for 5 to 10 seconds at the test pres-
sure value Correct.
• Radiator
• Radiator hose connections Coolant leaks Correct or replace.
• Radiator hoses Bulges Replace
