2. Disconnect all loading from the


engine. If a clutch is fitted,
disengage it.

3. Check that the area surrounding

Take the following steps to prevent the coolant from freezing:


• Add antifreeze to the coolant to prevent freezing and
corrosion. Before the onset of winter, have your dealer check
whether the coolant's antifreeze concentration has decreased.
• When replacing the coolant, ensure that the new coolant's
antifreeze concentration is suitable for the region in which the
engine is used. ¢[lJ P.64

NOTE
If antifreeze is not used, open the crankcase and radiator drain
