8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
■
When inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns.
●
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.
●
Keep hands and clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) away from
the fan and belts.
●
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.
■
To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
●
Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust
etc.).
●
Do not use any coolant additives.
