tected against frost and corrosion.

If water has been added to the coolant, have
a Yamaha dealer check the antifreeze con-
tent of the coolant as soon as possible, oth-
erwise the effectiveness of the coolant will
be reduced.
12. Install the radiator cap, start the engine, let it
idle for several minutes, and then turn it off.

level in the radiator. If it is low, add sufficient
coolant until it reaches the top of the radiator,
and then install the radiator cap.
14. Start the engine, and then check for coolant
leakage.
NOTE:

If any leakage is found, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cooling system.
15. Install the radiator cover by installing the bolts.
