2022 Kawasaki NINJA ZX-6R ABS KRT Edition Coolant
Coolant
Coolant Level Inspection
- Position the motorcycle so that it is perpendicular to the ground.
- Check the coolant level through the coolant level gauge on the reserve tank located to the right of the engine. The coolant level should be between the F (Full) and L (Low) level lines.
A. F (Full) Level Line
B. L (Low) Level Line
C. Reserve Tank
NOTE
- Check the level when the engine is cold (room or atmospheric temperature).
- If the amount of is insufficient, add to the reserve tank.
Coolant Filling
- Remove the reserve tank cap from the reserve tank and add coolant through the filler opening between the F (Full) and L (Low) level lines.
NOTE
ln, an emergency you can add water alone to the coolant reserve tank, however, it must be returned to the correct mixture ratio by the addition of antifreeze concentrate as soon as possible.
NOTICE
If coolant must be added often, or the reserve tank completely runs dry, there is probably leakage in the system. Has the cooling system been inspected by your authorized Kawasaki dealer?
- Install the reserve tank cap.
Coolant Change
Has the coolant been changed by an authorized Kawasaki dealer?
Coolant Requirement
WARNING
Coolant-containing corrosion inhibitors for aluminum engines and radiators include harmful chemicals to the human body. Drinking coolant can result in inserious injury or death. Use coolant in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer.
Use a permanent type of antifreeze (soft water and ethylene glycol plus corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals for aluminum engines and radiators) in the cooling system. On the mixture ratio of coolant, choose the suitable one re- ferring to the relation between freezing point and strength directed on the container.
NOTICE
If hard water is used in the system, it causes scale accumulation in the water passages, and considerably reduces the efficiency of the cooling system.
NOTE
A permanent type of antifreeze is installed in the cooling system when shipped. It is mixed at 50% and has a freezing point of—350C (—31 OF).
