CAUTION
To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
■
If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until the
●
steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, causing serious
injury such as burns.
Keep hands and clothing away from the fan and other belts while the engine is
●
running.
Do not loosen the coolant reservoir cap while the engine and radiator are hot.
●
Serious injury, such as burns, may result from hot coolant and steam released
under pressure.
NOTICE
When adding engine coolant
■
Wait until the engine has cooled down before adding engine coolant.
When adding coolant, do so slowly. Adding cool coolant to a hot engine too quickly
can cause damage to the engine.
