Maintenance and Adjustment
Note:
• If the coolant level is being
checked because the coolant has
overheated, also check the level in
the radiator and top up if
necessary.
• In an emergency, distilled water
can be added to the cooling
system. However, the coolant
must then be drained and
replenished with HD4X
Hybrid OAT coolant as soon as
possible.
Coolant Change
Have the coolant changed by an authorised
Triumph dealer in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements.
Radiator and Hoses
Check the radiator hoses for cracks or
deterioration, and hose clips for tightness in
accordance with scheduled maintenance
requirements. Have your authorised Triumph
dealer replace any defective items.
Check the radiator fins for obstructions by
insects, leaves or mud. Clean off any
obstructions with a stream of low-pressure
water.
If hard water is used in the cooling system,
it will cause scale accumulation in the
engine and radiator and considerably
reduces the efficiency of the cooling
system. Reduced cooling system efficiency
may cause the engine to overheat and
suffer severe damage.
The fan operates automatically when the
engine is running. Always keep hands and
clothing away from the fan as contact with
the rotating fan can cause injury.
Using high-pressure water sprays, such as
from a car wash facility or household
pressure washer, can damage the radiator
fins, cause leaks and impair the radiator's
efficiency.
Do not obstruct or deflect airflow through
the radiator by installing unauthorised
accessories, either in front of the radiator or
behind the cooling fan. Interference with
the radiator airflow can cause overheating,
potentially resulting in engine damage.
