6 3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
right floorboard mat by pulling it
up.
4. Remove the coolant reservoir cov- er.
5. Remove the coolant reservoir cap, add coolant to the maximum level
mark, and then install the reservoir
cap. WARNING! Remove only
the coolant reservoir cap. Never
attempt to remove the ra diator
cap when the en gine is hot.
[EWA15162] NOTICE: If coolant is not
availa ble, use d istilled water or
soft tap water instea d. Do not
use har d water or salt water
since it is harmful to the en gine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possi ble, other- wise the coolin
g system will not
b e protecte d a gainst frost an d
corrosion. If water has b een
a dde d to the coolant, have a
Yamaha dealer check the anti-
freeze content of the coolant as
soon as possi ble, otherwise the
effectiveness of the coolant will
b e red uced.

6 9. Remove the coolant reservoir cap,
and then turn the coolant reservoir
upside down to empty it.
10. After the coolant is completely drained, thoroughly flush the cool-
ing system with clean tap water.
11. Install the coolant reservoir by in- stalling the bolt.
12. Install the coolant drain bolt and its new gasket, and then tighten
the bolt to the specified torque.
13. Install the coolant drain screw and its new O-ring.
14. Pour the recommended coolant into the reservoir to the maximum
level mark, and then install the
coolant reservoir cap.
15. Pour the recommended coolant into the radiator until it is full.
16. Install the radiator cap, start the engine, let it idle for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
17. 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.
18. Start the engine, and then check the vehicle for coolant leakage. If
coolant is leaking, have a Yamaha
dealer check the cooling system.
19. Install the radiator cover by install- ing the bolts.
20. Install the panels.

WARNING
EWAT1041
Do not remove the rad iator cap when the engine an d ra diator are hot.
Scal din g hot flui d an d steam may b e blown out un der pressure, which
coul d cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the en gine has coole d.
 Place a thick ra g, like a towel, over the rad iator cap, and then slowly ro-
tate the cap counterclockwise to the d etent to allow any residual pres-
sure to escape. When the hissin g soun d has stoppe d, press d own on the
cap while turnin g it counterclockwise, an d then remove the cap.
TIP
If coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily used instead, provided
that it is changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.
Wait until the engine
has cooled.
Check the coolant
level in the reservoir
and radiator.Add coolant.
(See TIP.)
The coolant level is
OK.
There is no leakage.
There is leakage.
The coolant level is
low.
Check the cooling
system for leakage.
Have a Yamaha
dealer check and
repair the cooling
system.
Start the engine. If the engine overheats again,
have a Yamaha dealer check and repair the cooling
system.
