Inspection

LEVEL CHECK





^ Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the "MIN" to "MAX" when the engine is cool.
^ Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.

LEAK CHECK





^ To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system with the radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) (A) and radiator cap tester adapter (commercial service tool) (B).
Testing pressure: 157 kPa (1.6 kg/cm2, 23 psi)

WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping from radiator.


CAUTION:
Higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.


NOTE:
In a case that engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.

^ If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
