Chapter 3 OPERATION

Checking Coolant Level
Never check the coolant level while the engine
is in operation or immediately after it is stopped
but wait until the coolant temperature drops
sufficiently. If not, hot water blow out, causing
skin burns as a result.
Check if the coolant level is appropriate in the cool-
ant tank (at around center of the level gage). If the
coolant level is low, add coolant to the specified
level.
Always add coolant having the same LLC concen-
tration. Never add plain water.
Note:(a) Determine the amounts of LLC and water
to be poured by using the LLC concentra-
tion chart.
(b) Regarding coolant, refer to "Coolant" (4-6).
Inspection of Air Cleaner Indicator
1 Check the air cleaner indicator for the element
clog.
2 If the element clogs, the red signal mark is visi-
ble.
3 Immediately clean or replace the air cleaner ele-
ment when the signal turns red.
Note: Regarding cleaning of the air cleaner ele-
ment, refer to "Cleaning, Inspecting and
Changing Air Cleaner Element" (6-18).
