Before you start
- DO NOT remove the radiator cap while coolant is hot.
- Allow the engine and radiator to cool off completely (more than 30 minutes after it has been stopped).
Procedure
- Remove the radiator cap after the engine has completely cooled and check that coolant reaches the supply port.
- Check the coolant level of the reserve tank; when between the FULL and LOW marks the coolant will usually last for one day's work.
- When the coolant level drops due to evaporation, add only 50/50 coolant up to the full level.
- Securely retighten the radiator cap.
