IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Cautions for Driving in Hot Regions
The engine will be prone to overheating
in an environment where the ambient
temperature is high. To prevent the engine
from overheating, pay attention to the
following points:
If foreign matter (insects, mud, etc.) gets
stuck in the air passages of the radiator,
the performance of the cooling system
decreases. Check the air passages for
clogging, and remove any foreign matter
using tap water.
Handling the Radiator
→Refertopage 6-41
CAUTION
• Do not put well water, river water
or other hard water in the engine
cooling system. It would hasten the
formation of rust and scale.
ADVICE
• When the ambient temperature is
high, evaporation of battery fluid will
become quicker. Frequently check
the battery fluid level and, when
necessary, add more fluid.
