Maintenance and Adjustment
96
Note:
• If the coolant level is being checked
because the coolant has overheated,
also check the level in the radiator
and top off if necessary.
• In an emergency, distilled water can
be added to the cooling system.
However, the coolant must then be
drained and replenished with HD4X
Hybrid OAT coolant as soon as
possible.
Coolant Change
Have the coolant changed by an
authorized Triumph dealer in accordance
with scheduled maintenance require-
ments.
Radiator and Hoses
Check the radiator hoses for cracks or
deterioration, and hose clips for
tightness in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements. Have your
authorized Triumph dealer replace any
defective items.
Check the radiator fins for obstructions
by insects, leaves or mud. Clean off any
obstructions with a stream of
low-pressure water.
Caution
If hard water is used in the cooling
system, it will cause scale
accumulation in the engine and
radiator and considerably reduce the
efficiency of the cooling system.
Reduced cooling system efficiency
may cause the engine to overheat and
suffer severe damage.
Warning
The fan operates automatically when
the engine is running. Always keep
hands and clothing away from the fan
as contact with the rotating fan can
cause injury.
Caution
Using high-pressure water sprays,
such as from a car wash facility or
household pressure washer, can
damage the radiator fins, cause leaks
and impair the radiator's efficiency.
Do not obstruct or deflect airflow
through the radiator by installing
unauthorized accessories, either in
front of the radiator or behind the
cooling fan.
Interference with the radiator airflow
can cause overheating, potentially
resulting in engine damage.
