Warning! G
Do not pull the release lever while the ve-
hicle is in motion. Otherwise the hood
could be forced open by passing air flow.
This could cause the hood to come loose
and injure you and/or others.
Warning! G
If you see flames or smoke coming from
the engine compartment, or if the coolant
temperature gauge indicates that the en-
gine is overheated, do not open the hood.
Move away from vehicle and do not open
the hood until the engine has cooled. If
necessary, call the fire department.
Warning! G
You could be injured when the hood is
open – even when the engine is turned off.
Parts of the engine can become very hot.
To prevent burns, let the engine cool off
completely before touching any
components on the vehicle. Comply with
all relevant safety precautions.
Warning! G
To help prevent personal injury, stay clear
of moving parts when the hood is open
and the engine is running.
The radiator fan may continue to run for
approximately 30 seconds or even restart
after the engine has been turned off. Stay
clear of fan blades.
Warning! G
The engine is equipped with a transistor-
ized ignition system. Because of the high
voltage it is dangerous to touch any com-
ponents (ignition coils, spark plug sockets,
diagnostic socket) of the ignition system
