CAUTION
(1) Do not open the reservoir tank
lid or radiator cap while the
engine is hot. The coolant sys-
tem is under pressure and any
hot coolant release can cause
dangerous burns.
(2) Regularly check the coolant
level.
The coolant level in this tank must
between the “LOW” and “FULL” marks.
If the coolant level in the reservoir tank
decreases to the “LOW” mark at the
reservoir tank, open the lid and add
some coolant.
If the reservoir tank is cleaned, remove
the radiator cap and add coolant until
the level reaches the filler neck.
Anti-corrosion
The anti corrosion agent of the engine
coolant is an ethylene glycol type. The
cylinder head and the water-pump
housing are made of aluminium alloy.
Change the engine coolant regularly to
prevent the corrosion of these parts. Do
not replace the coolant with a clear
water.
Anti-freeze concentration
The concentration of anti-freeze varies
according to the ambient temperature.
For good anti-corrosion and anti-freeze
performance, keep the anti-freeze con-
centration in the range of 25 to 35%.
CAUTION
Concentration more than 35% can
cause a reduction in the anti-freeze
and the cooling performance.
Battery check
DOIGW010R06001
A good battery is important for starting
the engine and maintain the function
of the vehicle’s electrical system.

negative (-) battery terminal.
2. Disconnect the battery cable at the
positive (+) battery terminal.
3. After disconnecting the battery
cables, clean the terminals with
warm water.
4. Connect the battery cable at the
positive (+) battery terminal.
5. Connect the battery cable at the
negative (-) battery terminal.
6. Make sure each battery terminal
and battery cable are tight-locked.
7. After connecting the battery cables,
apply the battery terminals with
grease.
8. Make sure the battery is firmly in-
stalled and does not move during
travel.
9. If the vehicle has electronic power-
steering system, reset the steering
setting. Refer to topic “How to re-
