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.

1. Engine idling speed.
2. Engine noise level.
3. Engine lubricating system and cooling system.
Carefully check for oil and coolant leakage.

6B – 8 ENGINE COOLING
Draining and Refilling Cooling System
Before draining the cooling system, inspect the system and
perform any necessary service to ensure that it is clean, does
not leak and is in proper working order. The engine coolan
t
(EC) level should be between the “MIN" and “MAX" lines o
f
reserve tank when the engine is cold. If low, check for leakage
and add EC up to the “MAX" line.
There should not be any excessive deposit of rust or scales
around the radiator cap or radiator filler hole, and the EC
should also be free from oil.
Replace the EC if excessively dirty.


P1010064
1. Completely drain the cooling system by opening the drain
plug at the bottom of the radiator.

2. Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING: To avoid the danger of being burned, do not
remove the cap while the engine and radiator are still hot.
Scalding fluid and steam can be blown out unde
r
pressure.
3. Disconnect all hoses from the EC reserve tank.
Scrub and clean the inside of the reserve tank with soap and water. Flush it well with clean water, then drain it.
Install the reserve tank and hoses.
4. Refill the cooling system with the EC using a solution that is at least 50 percent antifreeze.

Procedure for filling with coolant (in case of full change)
 Make sure that the engine is cool.
 Open radiator cap pour coolant up to filler neck.
 Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to “MAX" line.
 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.
WARNING: When the coolant is heated to a high
temperature, be sure not to loosen or remove the radiato
r
cap. Otherwise you might get scalded by not 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.

ENGINE COOLING 6B – 9

 After tightening 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 wate
r
system.

needle position of water thermometer, conduct a 5–minute
idling again and stop the engine.
 When the engine has been cooled, check filler neck fo
r
water level and replenish if required. Should extreme
shortage of coolant is found, check the cooling system and
reservoir tank hose for leakage.
 Pour coolant into the reservoir tank up to “MAX" line.

OPERATIONS ON COOLING SYSTEM
Caution!
Before working with the cooling system, be sure to confirm that
the temperature of the engine is cooled down.
Failure to observe this may cause burn.








Cooling System, Check for Leaks
Installation
1. Install commercially available coolant checking
instrument onto compensation tank (Refer to section 6B;
Engine cooling).
2. Check coolant level.

Inspection
Use 5-8840-0277-0 tester & 5-8840-2603-0 adaptor.




Cooling System, Fill Up and Bleed
Important!
Radiator and heater core are made from alminium.
To avoid corrosion, use only anti-freeze with corrosion
protection.


Replace Coolant
1. Confirm the engine is cold enough.
2. Open the radiator cap, pour coolant to the filler neck level
and close the cap.
3. Pour coolant into the reservoir until MAX line is reached.
4. Start the engine, run 2 
3 minutes at idling speed and
switch off the engine.
5. Refill coolant if the coolant level is lowered.

6A-64 ENGINE MECHANICAL (C24SE)
Important!
Do not loosen or open the radiator cap when coolant is hot.
Doing so may cause hot water or steam to splash out, resulting
in burn. When opening the radiator cap, be sure to confirm the
coolant is cold. Cover a thick cloth over the cap and loosen it
slowly to reduce pressure, then open the cap.
6. Close the radiator cap firmly and run the engine at
approx. 2000 rpm. In addition, set the heater temperature
adjuster to the max position to circulate coolant in the
heater conduit system.
7. Confirm that the temperature gauge reads half or more
of full scale and that the thermostat is activated.
Then continue idling 5 minutes more and switch off the
engine, and allow it to cool.
8. After the engine cools down, check the coolant level and
refill it if necessary. When the level is lowered extremely,
check the coolant conduit system and reservoir hose for
leak.
9. Pour coolant into the reservoir to MAX level.







Refill Coolant
Important!
After closing the cooling system, let engine run warm until
thermostat opens (coolant approx. 92C/197.6F)

Inspection

Allow engine to cool. If necessary, refill coolant.

Check that cooling system self-bleeds during engine warming-
up phase.
