EAUM3791To change the coolant
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-
face and let the engine cool if nec-
essary.
2. Remove cowlings A, B, and C.
(See page 6-7.)
3. Place a container under the en-
gine to collect the used coolant.
4. Remove the radiator cap retaining
bolt and radiator cap. WARNING!
Never attempt to remove the ra-
diator cap when the engine is
hot.
[EWA10382]
5. Remove the coolant reservoir cov-
er by removing the bolt and quick
fastener, and then remove the
coolant reservoir.
TIP
The quick fastener is removed by
pushing the center pin in with a screw-
driver, and then pulling the fastener
out.
6. Remove the coolant reservoir cap.
7. Drain the coolant from the coolant
reservoir by turning it upside
down.
8. Install the coolant reservoir and its
cover by placing them in the origi-
nal position, and then installing the
bolt and quick fastener.
TIP
To install the quick fastener, push the
center pin out so that it will protrude
from the fastener head, insert the fas-
tener into the coolant reservoir, and
then push the protruding pin in until it is
flush with the fastener head.

69. Remove the coolant drain bolt and
its gasket to drain the coolant from
the cooling system.
10. After the coolant is completely
drained, thoroughly flush the cool-
ing system with clean tap water.
11. Install the coolant drain bolt and
its new gasket, and then tighten
the bolt to the specified torque.
12. Pour the specified amount of the
recommended coolant into the ra-
diator and reservoir.13. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
14. Install the radiator 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 and radiator 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. Install the cowlings.
19. Start the engine, and then check
the vehicle for coolant leakage. If
coolant is leaking, have a Yamaha
dealer check the cooling system.

6Engine overheating
WARNING
EWA10401
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot.
Scalding hot fluid and steam may be blown out under pressure, which
could cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the engine has cooled.
After removing the radiator cap retaining bolt, place a thick rag, like a
towel, over the radiator cap, and then slowly rotate the cap counter-
clockwise to the detent to allow any residual pressure to escape. When
the hissing sound has stopped, press down on the cap while turning it
counterclockwise, and 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.
