 COOLING SYSTEM 
Coolant Level 
Check the coolant level and replenish the radiator reserve 
tank as necessary. 
If the coolant level falls below the “MIN” line, carefully 
check the cooling system for leakage. Then add enough 
coolant to bring the level up to the “MAX” line. 
 
 
 
 
Engine coolant Filling up procedure 
1.  Make sure that the engine is cool. 
Warning: 
When the coolant is heated to a high temperature, be 
sure not to loosen or remove the rediator cap. 
Otherwise you might get scalded by hot vapor or 
boiling water. 
To open the radiator cap, put a piece of thick cloth on 
the cap and loosen the cap slowly to reduce the 
pressure when the coolant has become cooler. 
2.  Open rediator cap pour coolant up to filler neck 
3.  Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to “MAX” line 
4.  Tighten radiator cap and start the engine. After idling 
for 2 to 3 minutes, stop the engine and reopen radiator 
cap. If the water level is lower, replenish. 
5.  After replenish the coolant tighten radiator cap, warm 
up the engine at about 2000 rpm. Set heater 
adjustment to the highest temperature position, and let 
the coolant circulate also into heater water system. 
6.  Check to see the thermometer, continuously idling 5 
minutes and stop the engine. 
7.  When the engine has been cooled, check filler neck 
for water level and replenish if required. Should 
extreme shortage of coolant is found, check the 
coolant system and reservoir tank hose for leakage. 
8.  Pour coolant into the reservoir tank up to “MAX” line.

Cooling System Inspection 
Install a radiator filler cap tester to the radiator. Apply 
testing pressure to the cooling system to check for 
leakage. The testing pressure must not exceed the 
specified pressure. 
 
Testing Pressure  kPa(kg/cm
2 /psi)
150 (1.5/21) 
  
 
 
Radiator Cap Inspection 
The radiator filler cap is designed to maintain coolant 
pressure in the cooling system at 103 kPa(1.05 kg/cm2, 
15psi).  
Check the radiator filler cap with a radiator filler cap tester. 
The radiator filler cap must be replaced if it fails to hold the 
specified pressure during the test procedure.
