Cooling fluid level (03_12, 03_13, 03_14)
Engine cooling is carried out by a forced-circulation coolant system. The coolant con-
sists of a mixture 50% de-ionised water and 50% glycol ethylene-based antifreeze
solution with corrosion inhibitors. The coolant supplied with the scooter is already
mixed and ready for use.
For the proper operation of the engine, the temperature of the cooling liquid must be
maintained at about 90°C (mid-scale instrument indicator, approximately). If the nee-
dle of the gauge enters the red zone, stop the engine, let it cool down and check the
coolant level; if the level is OK, contact an
Authorised Service Centre.
Check coolant when the engine is cold and as indicated in the scheduled maintenance
tables, following the steps below.
1 . Put the vehicle in an upright position on its stand and turn completely left the han-
dlebars.
2 . Open the right dashboard glove-box by lifting it.
3 . Remove the expansion tank cap « A » by turning it anticlockwise.
4 . Look inside the expansion tank and check that the fluid level is always between the
« MIN » and « MAX » level marks.
5 . Top-up the fluid when it is close to the minimum mark.
If the level is not correct, proceed to top-up when the engine is cold. If the coolant
needs to be topped up frequently or the expansion tank is completely dry, check the
cooling system to find the cause of the problem. It is therefore essential to have the
cooling system checked at an
Authorised Service Centre .
Replace coolant as indicated in the scheduled maintenance table. Take your vehicle
to an
Authorised Service Centre for this operation.
WARNING
TO AVOID THE RISK OF SCALDING, DO NOT UNSCREW THE EXPANSION
