When the coolant temperature reaches a specified
level, this light comes on to warn that the coolant
temperature is too hot. If the light comes on during
operation, stop the engine as soon as it is safe to
do so and allow the engine to cool down for about
10 minutes.
The coolant temperature warning light circuit can
be checked according to the procedure on page
4-7.CAUTION:

The engine may overheat if the ATV is
overloaded. If this happens, reduce the
load to specification.


Restart after making sure that the light is
out. Continuous use while the light is on
may cause damage to the engine.

Coolant
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir
when the engine is cold. (The coolant level will
vary with engine temperature.) The coolant level is
satisfactory if it is between the minimum and max-
imum level marks on the coolant reservoir. If the
coolant level is at or below the minimum level
mark, add distilled water to bring the level up to the
maximum level mark. Change the coolant every
two years. (See pages 8-35–8-45 for details.)CAUTION:_ Hard water or salt water is harmful to the en-
gine. You may use soft water if you cannot get
distilled water. _
Coolant reservoir capacity
(up to the maximum level mark):
0.29 L

maximum level marks. _2. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level
mark, remove the coolant reservoir cap, and
then add coolant or distilled water to raise it to
the specified level.CAUTION:_ Hard water or salt water is harmful to the en-
gine. You may use soft water if you can’t get
