14 COOLING SYSTEM

100

14.1

Cooling system

K01161-10

The water pump

in the engine forces the coolant to flow.

The pressure resulting from the warming of the cooling system
is regulated by a valve in the radiator cap

. This ensures that

operating the vehicle at the specified coolant temperature will not

result in a risk of malfunctions.

120 °C (248 °F)

Cooling is effected by the air stream.
The lower the speed, the less the cooling effect. Dirty cooling fins

also reduce the cooling effect.

14.2

Checking the antifreeze and coolant level

Warning

Danger of scalding

During motorcycle operation, the coolant gets very hot and is under pressure.

–

Do not open the radiator, the radiator hoses or other cooling system components if the engine or

the cooling system are at operating temperature.

–

Allow the cooling system and the engine to cool down before you open the radiator, the radiator

hoses or other components of the cooling system.

–

In the event of scalding, rinse the area affected immediately with lukewarm water.

Warning

Danger of poisoning

Coolant is harmful to health.

–

Keep coolant out of the reach of children.

–

Do not allow coolant to come into contact with the skin, the eyes and clothing.

–

Consult a doctor immediately if coolant is swallowed.

–

Rinse the affected area immediately with plenty of water in the event of contact with the skin.

–

Rinse eyes thoroughly with water and consult a doctor immediately if coolant gets into the eyes.

–

Change clothing if coolant spills onto your clothing.
