2.5. COOLANT<br />
2.5.1. COOLANT<br />
CHECKING AND TOPPING UP COOLANT LEVEL<br />
• Check coolant level before each ride. Change coolant<br />
every 2 years.<br />
WARNING<br />
Check and top up coolant level when the engine<br />
is cold.<br />
• The engine should be off and completely cold.<br />
IMPORTANT Place the motorcycle on firm and level ground.<br />
• Position the vehicle on the stand.<br />
• Remove front cover, see 7.1.9 (REMOVING THE<br />
FRONT COVER).<br />
• Check that the coolant level in the expansion (2) reservoir<br />
is between the MAX and MIN marks (see figure).<br />
If not, proceed as follows:<br />
• Release and remove the filler cap (1).<br />
WARNING<br />
Coolant is toxic when ingested and is an irritant,<br />
contact with eyes or skin may cause irritation.<br />
Do not put your fingers or any tools into the<br />
filler opening to check coolant level.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Do not add any additives or other products.<br />
If you use a funnel or other similar items, make<br />
sure that they are perfectly clean.<br />
• Add coolant mixture until the level reaches just below<br />
the MAX mark.<br />
• Never overfill (top up beyond the MAX mark), or coolant<br />
will leak out when the engine is running.<br />
• Refit the filler cap (1).<br />
• Refit front cover, see 7.1.9 (REMOVING THE FRONT<br />
COVER).<br />
CAUTION<br />
In the event the motorcycle is using up exceeding<br />
coolant or the expansion (9) reservoir is<br />
empty, check the circuit for leaks.<br />
