Changing Coolant

Change coolant according to Scheduled

Maintenance (page 8-3).

For mixture percentage:

To change coolant

1. Remove the cooling system cap.

•

Use only soft (demineralized) water

in the coolant mixture. Water that

contains minerals will cut down on

the coolant’s effectiveness.

•

Don’t add only water. Always add a

proper coolant mixture.

•

The engine has aluminum parts and

must be protected by an ethylene-

glycol-based coolant to prevent

corrosion and freezing.

•

DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol

antifreeze. DO NOT MIX alcohol

or methanol with the coolant. This

could damage the cooling system.

•

Don’t use a solution that contains

more than 60 % antifreeze.

This would reduce effectiveness.

CAUTION

Removing the Cooling System Cap:

Removing the cooling system cap or

drain plug while the engine is

running or hot is dangerous. This

might lead to cooling system and

engine damage and could result in

serious injury from escaping hot

coolant or steam. Turn off the engine

and wait until it’s cool. Even then, be

very careful when removing the cap

or drain plug. Wrap a thick cloth

around it and slowly turn it

counterclockwise to the first stop.

Step back while the pressure escapes.

When you’re sure all the pressure is

gone, press down on the cap — still

using a cloth — turn the cap, and

remove it.
