MAINTENANCE
Cooling System
Coolant High Temperature Indicator Light
The high temperature indicator light will illuminate when engine cool-
ant temperature becomes too hot for safe continued operation of the
engine. Stop the snowmobile and allow the engine to cool. Place snow
on the coolers to help cool the engine. If coolant is low in the coolant
overflow bottle, add coolant to the coolant bottle. Do not open the radia-
tor pressure cap.
Drive in adequate snow to prevent overheating. If you must drive your
snowmobile after the high temperature indicator light has illuminated,
drive in deep snow. Drive slowly and stop frequently to allow the engine
to cool down. Engine performance will be reduced if you continue oper-
ating when the high temperature light is illuminated.
WARNING
Steam and hot liquids will cause serious burns to your skin. Never remove
the pressure cap when the engine is warm or hot, or if any part of the cooling
system is warm or hot.
CAUTION
Operating the snowmobile when the high temperature indicator light is illumi-
nated can result in serious engine damage. Always stop the snowmobile and
cool the engine when the high temperature indicator light illuminates.
