Cooling fluid level (03_15, 03_16, 03_17, 03_18)
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 proper engine functioning, make sure that the temperature of the coolant remains
in the middle zone of the corresponding gauge. If the needle 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 . Set the vehicle upright on the stand and remove the cover by undoing screw « A ».
2 . Remove the expansion tank cover « B » by turning it anticlockwise.
3 . Look inside the expansion tank and check that fluid level is always between the
« MIN » and « MAX » levels.
4 . 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
TANK COVER WHILE THE ENGINE IS STILL HOT.
