SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
• The water pump must be serviced after removing the engine.
Other cooling system service can be done with the engine installed in the frame.
• The engine must be cool before servicing the cooling system.
When the coolant temperature is over 100¢J, never remove the radiator cap to release the
pressure because the boiling coolant may cause danger.
• Avoid spilling coolant on painted surfaces because the coolant will corrode the painted surfaces.
Wash off any spilled coolant with fresh water as soon as possible.
• After servicing the system, check for leaks with a cooling system tester.

Cautions for Using Coolant:
• Use coolant of specified mixing rate. (The
mixing rate of 425cc KYMCO SIGMA
coolant concentrate + 975cc distilled
water is 30%.)
• Do not mix coolant concentrate of
different brands.
• Do not drink the coolant which is
poisonous.
• The freezing point of coolant mixture shall
be 5¢Jlower than the freezing point of the
riding area.

COOLING SYSTEM TESTING
RADIATOR CAP INSPECTION
Install the radiator cap onto the radiator
tester and apply specified pressure to it. It
must hold specified pressure for at least six
seconds.
Radiator Cap Relief Pressure:
0.75~1.05kg/cm_
Install the radiator tester onto the radiator
and apply specified pressure to it. It must
hold specified pressure for at least six
seconds.
Check the water hoses and connectors for
leaks.
The test pressure should not exceed 1.05
kg/cm_. Excessive pressure can damage
the radiator and its hose connectors.
°Ø
Apply water to the cap sealing surface
before testing.
