Coolant
The coolant level should be checked before each
ride.
Checking the coolant level
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Check the coolant level in the coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold as the coolant
level varies with engine temperature. TIPThe coolant should be between the minimum and
maximum level marks.3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level
mark, remove the coolant reservoir cap, add
coolant to the maximum level mark, reinstall
the reservoir cap.
Coolant reservoir capacity
(up to the maximum level mark):
0.32 L (0.34 US qt, 0.28 Imp.qt)

Engine overheating
Wait for the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap. WARNING! If the engine is not cool when
removing the radiator cap, hot fluid and steam could blow out under pressure and burn you. Place
a thick rag over the cap and remove the cap slowly to allow any remaining pressure to escape.
If it is difficult to get the recommended coolant, tap water can be used temporarily, provided that it is
changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir and/or radiator.
Level is OK.Level is low, check the
cooling system for leakage.
No
leakage.Leakage.
Ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See the text below.)
Restart the engine. If the engine overheats again, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect and/or repair the cooling system.

The figures quoted are emission levels and are not
necessarily safe working levels. Whilst there is a
correlation between the emission and exposure
levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine
whether or not further precautions are required.
Factors that influence the actual level of exposure
of work-force include the characteristics of the
work room, the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the
number of machines and other adjacent process-
es, and the length of time for which an operator is
exposed to the noise. Also the permissible expo-
sure level can vary from country. This information,
however, will enable the user of the machine to
make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.
