If
Steam
Is
Coming From
Your
Engine
I
CAUTION:
Steam from an overheated engine can burn you
badly, even if you just open the hood. Stay away
from the engine if you see or hear steam coming
from it. Just turn
it
off
and get everyone away
from the vehicle until
it
cools down. Wait until
there
is
no
sign of steam or coolant before you
open the hood.
If
you keep driving when your engine
is
overheated, the liquids in
it
can catch fire. You or
others could be badly burned. Stop your engine if
it
overheats, and get out of the vehicle until the
engine is
cool.
