HANDLING IN COLD SEASON
Cautions for Use in Cold Regions and Seasons
When operating the engine in cold regions,
visit the nearest Isuzu Distributor to arrange the
following winter preparations.
Fuel → Refer to Page 4-3
Coolant → Refer to Page 5-16
Battery → Refer to Page 5-32
Engine Oil → Refer to Page 5-6
CAUTION
Do not cover the front of the radiator with newspapers, cardboard or any other
flammable material to raise the coolant temperature.
When the coolant temperature does not rise after the engine is warmed up,
have the thermostat inspected at the nearest Isuzu Distributor.
In an area with heavy snow, the snow accumulated around the machine may
cause bad ventilation. When the engine is left running under such a condition,
the exhaust gas may be accumulated, causing carbon monoxide poisoning.
Remove the snow around the machine to take a precaution.

Handling the Coolant
To prevent the engine damage due to freezing of
the coolant, mix the long-life coolant (LLC) and
tap water to be an appropriate concentration.
CAUTION
If water is used as a coolant instead of
long-life coolant, rust may be generated,
possibly resulting in water leakage. It is
also necessary to discharge the water from
the radiator and engine after stopping the
engine as leaving the water in the engine
may result in engine damage caused by
freezing.
