13-1-2. Checking before start-up
Check the following points before initial start-up for the day.
Checking and replenishing the cooling water
1) Open the engine hood rear cover. Then check that the
cooling water lever in the sub-tank (1) (illustrated in the
right figure) is between the FULL and LOW marks. If the
water level is below the LOW mark, refill the sub-tank
up to the FULL mark through the water supply port of
the sub-tank (1).
For the quality of cooling water to be used, refer to Sec-
tion "21. Fueling, Oiling and Greasing Based on Tem-
perature Range".
2) After replenishing, securely tighten the radiator cap.
3) If the sub-tank is empty, check it for water leakage, and
then, check the water level in the radiator.
If the water level is low, refill the radiator first, then refill
the sub-tank.
4) If the cooling water level is appropriate, close the en-
gine hood rear cover.
• Do not remove the fill cap from the radiator un-
less refilling the coolant.
• Check the coolant water level in the sub-tank
when the engine is cool.
