[13] CHECK POINTS OF EVERY 2 YEARS
Flush Cooling System and Changing Coolant
CAUTION
• Do not remove radiator cap while coolant is hot. When cool,
slowly rotate cap to the first stop and allow sufficient time
for excess pressure to escape before removing the cap
completely.
1. Stop the engine and let cool down.
2. To drain the coolant, open the radiator drain plug (1) and
remove radiator cap (2). The radiator cap (2) must be removed
to completely drain the coolant.
3. After all coolant is drained, reinstall the drain plug (1).
4. Fill with clean water and cooling system cleaner.
5. Follow directions of the cleaner instruction.
6. After flushing, fill with clean water and anti-freeze until the
coolant level is just below the radiator cap. Install the radiator
cap (2) securely.
7. Fill with clean water and anti-freeze up to the upper line of
recovery tank (3).
8. Start and operate the engine for few minutes.
9. Stop the engine. Check coolant level and add coolant if
necessary.
10. Properly dispose of used coolant.
IMPORTANT
• Do not start engine without coolant.
• Use clean, fresh water and anti-freeze to fill the radiator.
• When the anti-freeze is mixed with water, the anti-freeze
mixing ratio must be less than 50 %.
• Securely tighten radiator cap (2). If the cap is loose or
improperly fitted, water may leak out and the engine could
overheat.
