83. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level
mark, remove panel D to access the coolant
reservoir. (See page 8-10.)
4. Remove the coolant reservoir cap, add cool- ant or distilled water to the maximum level
mark, install the reservoir cap, and then install
the panel. NOTICE: If coolant is not avail-
able, use distilled water or soft tap water
instead. Do not use hard water or salt wa-
ter since they are harmful to the engine. If
water has been used instead of coolant,
replace it with coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the cooling system will not be
protected 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,
otherwise the effectiveness of the coolant
will be reduced.

TIP The radiator fan is automatically switched on or
off according to the coolant temperature in the
radiator.

9. After draining the coolant, thoroughly flush
the cooling system with clean tap water.
10. Install the coolant drain bolt and its new gas- ket, and then tighten the bolt to the specified
torque.
11. Connect the coolant reservoir hose.
12. Pour the recommended coolant into the radi- ator until it is full. 13. Pour the recommended coolant into the res-
ervoir to the maximum level mark, and then
install the reservoir cap. NOTICE: Mix anti-
freeze with distilled water only. However, if
distilled water is not available, soft water
may be used for refilling. Do not use hard
water or salt water since they are harmful
to the engine.

14. Loosen the water pump air bleed bolt, with- out removing it, to allow all of the air to es-
cape from the air bleed bolt hole.
