Follow these steps to minimize risk of
personal injury.
1. Before you remove the radiator cap, turn the
engine off and let it cool. Even when the
engine is cool, be careful when you remove
the radiator cap.
2. When the engine is cool, wrap a thick cloth
around the cap and turn it slowly
counterclockwise to the first stop.
3. Step back while the pressure releases.
4. When you are sure that all the pressure has
been released, use the cloth to turn and
remove cap.
5. Stand away from the radiator opening. Hot
steam may blow out or hot engine coolant
may even splash out.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in serious personal injury from hot
engine coolant or steam blowout and/or
damage to the engine cooling system or
engine.
To find out how much engine coolant mixture
your vehicle's coolant system can hold, see Refill
capacities for fluids in the Index.
