CAUTION
(Continued)
Fans or other moving engine
parts can injure you badly. Keep
your hands, hair and loose
clothing away from moving
parts.
Exercise extreme caution
around the electric engine fan.
It sometimes starts by itself,
even when the engine is not
running.
CAUTION
It is highly dangerous to touch
live parts in the engine
compartment while the ignition
is on.
Batteries
CAUTION
Vehicle batteries can hurt you.
They contain acid and electrici-
ty that can burn and gas that
can explode or ignite. Use care
and follow any applicable
instructions when working near
a battery.
Do not let battery fluid touch
your skin. If you do get it in your
eyes or on your skin, flush the
place with water and get medi-
cal help immediately.
