2. Coolant Fluid
When the temperature decreases below 5
℃,
the w ater in the cooling system sha l

l
be drained after
shutdown. In order to avoid draining and filling water repeatedly, we recommend to use antifreeze
coolant fluid (refer to the section of “
Coolant Fluid
” in Chapter 2 for details).
Notice
：
Carbinol base antifreeze is not recommended because it will affect the non-metal material in
the cooling system and decrease the boiling point of the coolant fluid.
High silicate antifreeze is not recommended because it will lead to serious deposits.
Please use antifreeze as the proper proportion recommended by related manufacturer.
3. Lubricating Oil
When the temperature decreases, the viscosity of the oil increases resulting in difficult startup of the
engine, and the viscosity affects the stability of the engine to a large extent; hence it is very important to
select lubricating oil with appropriate viscosity based on the temperature. (Refer to the section of
“
Lubricating Oil
” in Chapter 2 for details)
4. Battery
The battery capacity decreases with the temperature and its discharge rate reduces rapidly. Therefore
it is proposed to check the battery in chartered service station before winter and replace it if necessary.
Pay attention to charge the battery fully in cold winter.
