CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS
Engine Overheat Warning Light
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap or reserve tank cap when the engine coolant
is still hot. Careless removal could result in burns caused by hot vapor being
released. Burns may also be caused by boiling water released due to the high
temperature of the coolant. Perform inspection, refilling, and replacement of
coolant only when its temperature has cooled.
•
ADVICE
Do not shut down an overheated engine immediately. Otherwise, the engine
may seize up. Take appropriate actions for engine overheating.
