2.9. COOLANT
2.9.1. CHECKING AND TOPPING UP THE
COOLANT LEVEL
Carefully read
1.2.1. and 1.3.1.
• Check the coolant level before starting and change it
every two years.
WARNING
Check the coolant level and top up the
expansion reservoir with cold engine.
• Stop the engine and wait until it has cooled down.
NOTE Place the vehicle on a firm and flat surface.
• Raise the seat.
• Undo and remove screw (1).
• Remove protection.
• Keep the vehicle in vertical position, with the two
wheels resting on the ground.
• Make sure that the coolant contained in the expansion
reservoir is included between the “MIN” and “MAX”
marks (see figure).
If not, proceed as follows:
• Unscrew and remove the filling cap (2).
DANGER
The coolant is toxic: do not swallow it; if the
coolant gets in contact with the skin or the
eyes, it can cause serious irritations.
Do not use your fingers or any other object to
check if there is enough coolant.
WARNING
Do not put additives or other substances into
the fluid.
If you use a funnel or other similar items, make
sure that they are perfectly clean.
• Top up the expansion reservoir by adding coolant, see
1.8.1., until this almost reaches the "MAX" level.
• Do not exceed this level, otherwise the fluid will flow
out while the engine is running.
• Put back the filling cap (2).
WARNING
In case of excessive consumption of coolant
and in case the expansion reservoir (1) remains
empty, make sure that there are no leaks in the
circuit.
