PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT TIP The coolant should be between the minimum and maximum level marks. 3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level mark, remove panel B and the reservoir cap. (See page 66.) WARNING! Remove only the coolant reservoir cap. Never attempt to remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.[EWA15161] 4. Add coolant or distilled water to raise the coolant to the maximum level mark, and install the coolant reservoir cap and the panel. NOTICE: If coolant is not available, use distilled water or soft tap water instead. Do not use hard water or salt water since it is harmful to the engine. If water has been used instead of coolant, replace it with coolant as soon as possible, otherwise the cooling system will not be protected against frost and corrosion. If water has been added to the coolant, have a Yamaha dealer check the antifreeze content of the coolant as soon as possible, otherwise the effectiveness of the coolant will be reduced.[ECA10472] Coolant reservoir capacity: 0.26 L (0.27 US qt, 0.23 Imp.qt) EAU1722A 1 2 EAU33031 1 2 ZAUM00** 1.

WARNING! Remove only the
coolant reservoir cap. Never at-
tempt to remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot.

4. Add coolant or distilled water to
raise the coolant to the maximum
level mark, and install the coolant
reservoir cap and the panel.
NOTICE:
If coolant is not avail-
able, use distilled water or soft
tap water instead. Do not use hard
water or salt water since it is
harmful to the engine. If water
has been used instead of cool-
ant, replace it with coolant as
soon as possible, otherwise the

tected against frost and corro-
sion. If water has been added to
the coolant, have a Yamaha
dealer check the antifreeze con-
tent of the coolant as soon as
possible, otherwise the effective-
ness of the coolant will be
reduced.
