Cooling system

Air bleeding the cooling system

WARNING

●

Do not remove the coolant reservoir cap when

the engine is hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam

may be blown out under pressure, which could

cause serious injury.

When the engine has cooled, place a thick rag or

towel over the coolant reservoir cap, slowly rotate

the cap counterclockwise to the detent. This pro-

cedure allows any residual pressure to escape.

When the hissing sound has stopped, press

down on the cap while turning counterclockwise

and remove it.

●

The cooling system must be bled of air if the

coolant reservoir becomes empty, if air can be

seen in the cooling system, or if there is a cooling

system leak. Consult a Yamaha dealer.

CAUTION

Operating the engine with an improperly bled cool-

ing system can cause overheating and severe

engine damage.
