CHECKING AND TOPPING UP
The coolant level should be checked and
topped up only while the engine is cold.
♦ Shut off the engine and wait for it to cool.
NOTE Place the vehicle on a flat, hard
surface.
♦ Open the storage compartment, see page
40 (GLOVE COMPARTMENT).
♦ Make sure that the level of fluid in the
expansion tank (2), is between the
reference marks “MIN” and “MAX”.
MIN = minimum level.
MAX = maximum level.
If not:
♦ Removing the front hood, see page 70
(REMOVING THE FRONT HOOD).
♦ Loosen the filler cap (1) (by turning it
counter-clockwise), without removing it.
♦ Wait a few seconds to allow any pressure
to bleed off.
NOTE The plug (1) is connected to a
breather tube (3). Do not force or disconnect
the breather tube (3).
♦ Unscrew and remove the cap (1).
Coolant is harmful if swallowed; contact
with skin or eyes may cause irritation.
Do not insert your finger or any foreign
objects to check for coolant.
Do not exceed the “MAX” level when
topping u, to keep fluid from leaking out
while the engine is running.
♦ Top up with coolant, see page 90
(LUBRICANT CHART), until the fluid
approximately reaches the “MAX” level.
♦ Replace the filler cap (1).
If coolant is used up too quickly and the
expansion tank becomes empty, check
for leaks in the circuit. Contact an
authorized aprilia Dealer for repairs.
♦ Replace the front hood, see page 70
(REMOVING THE FRONT HOOD).
