6. Start the engine with the radiator cap still
removed and continue to add coolant as
the level decreases as air is expelled from
the system. When the level remains con-
stant, replace the radiator cap and replen-
ish the coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure
that no coolant leaks are present.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine
coolant temperature and may sometimes
operate even when the engine is not run-
ning. Use extreme caution when working
near the blades of the cooling fan so that
you are not injured by a rotating fan
blade. As the engine coolant temperature
decreases, the fan will automatically shut
off. This is a normal condition.
