[MC01600(R)01/96] Precautions When Servicing Your Vehicle
*
[MC01700(R)01/96]
Be especially careful when inspecting or servicing your vehicle.
Here are some general precautions for your safety:
*
[MC01900(R)01/96]
■ If you must work with the engine running, avoid wearing
loose clothing or jewelry that could get caught in moving
parts. Take appropriate precautions with long hair.
*
[MC02000(R)01/96]
■ Do not work on a vehicle in an enclosed space with the
engine running, unless you are sure you have enough
ventilation.
*
[MC02100(R)01/96]
■ Never get under a vehicle while it is supported only by a
jack. If you must work under a vehicle, use safety stands.
*
[MC02200(R)01/96]
■ Keep all lit cigarettes and other smoking materials away
from the battery and all fuel-related parts.
*
[MC02500(R)01/96]
If you disconnect the battery, the engine must “relearn” its idle
conditions before your vehicle will drive properly. To find out
how the engine does this, see Battery in this chapter.

[MC02600(R)01/96]
Working with the engine off:
*
[MC02660(R)01/96] 1. Set the parking brake fully and make sure that the gearshift
is securely latched in P (Park).
*
[MC02700(R)01/96] 2. Remove the key from the ignition after you turn the engine
off.
*
[MC02725(R)01/96] 3. Block the wheels. This will prevent your vehicle from
moving unexpectedly.
