coolant capacity YAMAHA TZR50 2008 Owners Manual

NOTE:
Check the washer for damage and
replace it if necessary.
8. Pour the recommended coolant
into the radiator until it is full.
ECA10470
CAUTION:
If coolant is not available, use
distilled water or soft tap water
instead. Do not use hard water
or salt water since it is harmful
to the engine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with coo-
lant as soon as possible, other-
wise the engine may not be
sufficiently cooled and the coo-
ling system will not be protec-
ted against frost and corrosion.
If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possi-
ble, otherwise the effective-
ness of the coolant will be
reduced.
9. Install the radiator cap, start the
engine, let it idle for several minu-
tes, and then turn it off.
10. Remove the radiator cap to
check the coolant level in the
radiator. If necessary, add suffi-
cient coolant until it reaches the
top of the radiator, and then ins-
tall the radiator cap.
11. Check the coolant level in the
reservoir. If necessary, remove
the coolant reservoir cap, add
coolant to the maximum level
mark, and then install the cap.12. Start the engine, and then check
the vehicle for coolant leakage. If
coolant is leaking, have a Yama-
ha dealer check the cooling sys-
tem.
13. Install the cowlings.
