CAUTION
To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until the
steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, causing serious
injury such as burns.
Keep hands and clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) away from the fans
and belts. Failure to do so may cause the hands or clothing to be caught, resulting
in serious injury.
Do not loosen the radiator cap or the coolant reservoir cap while the engine and
radiator are hot.
Serious injury, such as burns, may result from hot coolant and steam released
under pressure.
NOTICE
When adding engine coolant
Wait until the engine has cooled down before adding engine coolant.
When adding coolant, do so slowly. Adding cool coolant to a hot engine too quickly
can cause damage to the engine.
To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust etc.).
Do not use any coolant additive.
