Special care must be taken in
maintaining vehicles to prevent
accidental injuries. Make sure to obey
the followings:
CAUTION
●
If coolant over󽗊ows, wipe it with
a dry cloth or tissue to prevent
damage to components or vehicle
paint and add coolant in time.
●
If brake 󽗊uid over󽗊ows, rinse it
with water to prevent damage to
components or vehicle paint.
●
Do not drive the vehicle with the
air 󽗉lter removed; otherwise, the
engine is excessively worn.
●
When replacing wiper blades, do
not allow the wipers to scratch the
glass surface.
●
Before closing the bonnet, check
whether any tool or wipe cloth is
left in the engine compartment.
REMINDER
●
Do not smoke in or near the
vehicle to avoid sparks or open
󽗊ames that may cause 󽗉re.
●
When working inside or under the
vehicle, always wear goggles to
protect your eyes against 󽗊ying or
falling objects or splashing liquid.
●
As brake 󽗊uid may damage
the skin or eyes, be careful
when 󽗉lling it. If your skin
or eyes are exposed to brake
󽗊uid, immediately 󽗊ush with
clean water. If you still feel
uncomfortable with your hands
or eyes, seek medical attention
immediately.

expansion tank should be checked at
each charge.

checking.

conditions monthly. If the wiper does
not work, check it for wear, cracking, or
other damage.
