Maintenance
9-20
Turn the vehicle off and wait until the 
engine cools down. Use extreme care 
when removing the engine coolant 
cap and/or water-cooled intercooler 
coolant cap. Wrap a thick towel around 
it, and turn it anti-clockwise slowly 
to the first stop. Step back whilst the 
pressure is released from the cooling 
system. When you are sure all the 
pressure has been released, press 
down on the cap, using a thick towel, 
and continue turning anti-clockwise to 
remove it.
 Information
The coolant level is influenced by the 
engine temperature. Before checking or 
refilling the coolant, turn the engine off.
 WARNING
The electric motor for the 
cooling fan may continue to 
operate or start up when the 
engine is not running and can 
cause serious injury. Keep 
hands, clothing and tools away 
from the rotating fan blades of 
the cooling fan.
Always turn off the vehicle unless the 
vehicle has to be inspected with the 
engine on. Be cautious as the cooling 
fan may operate if the negative (-) 
battery terminal is not disconnected.
 WARNING
Make sure the coolant cap is properly 
closed after refilling coolant. Otherwise 
the engine could be overheated whilst 
driving.
