(FLUSHING AND CARE)

02-02-3

CARE

1. Check joints for leaks to avoid water accumula-

tion in the bilge.

2. Do not modify hose or socket size as coolant

flow could be altered.

3. When engine is running, water must flow from

bleed outlet(s) indicating that water circulates.

4. For hose clamp installation, use special pliers (P

/ N 295 000 070).

5. When installing hoses onto fittings or when

troubleshooting for water intake in the bilge ar-
ea, confirm that all hoses are properly secured
to the fittings.

6. Check monitoring beeper operation by jumping

terminal of thermosensor wire to ground.
Beeper must operate.

At every verification of monitoring beeper always
apply dielectric grease on thermosensor connec-
tor.

Verify wire terminal on connector for tightness. If
too loose, squeeze terminal slightly at installation.

CAUTION : When investigating for no wa-
ter flow in the cooling system, check all

elbows and straight fittings as well as all hoses
for blockage.
