The reserve tank lid is equipped with a dipstick.
Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean cloth. Rein-
sert the dipstick as far as it goes. Remove the dipstick and
read the coolant level, which should always be within the
range “F” (FULL) or “L” (LOW).
6. Add coolant to the radiator and/or reserve tank if neces-
sary (refer to the “Maintenance” section).
7. Examine the radiator hoses for coolant leakage and the
drive belt for looseness or damage.
If there is anything wrong with the cooling system or
drive belt, we recommend you to have it checked and
repaired.
WARNING
!
● If there is none, make sure that the engine has
cooled down before removing the radiator cap (B),
because hot steam or boiling water otherwise will
gush from the filler port and may scald you.

CAUTION

Do not add coolant while the engine is hot. Suddenly
adding cold coolant could damage the engine. Wait
for the engine to cool down, then add coolant a little
at a time.
