Safety Information 27
DO NOT raise the engine hood if you see or hear steam or coolant
escaping from the engine compartment. Wait until steam or coolant
cannot be seen or heard any longer before raising the hood.
DO NOT remove the coolant fill cap if the coolant in the surge tank is
boiling. Also, do not remove the cap while the engine and radiator are still
hot. Scalding fluid and steam may be blown out under pressure if the cap
is taken off too soon, which can cause personal injury and damage to
engine components.
DO NOT touch any part of the engine while it is hot. Allow the engine to cool
before any repair or maintenance is performed on the engine.
Relieve all pressure in air, oil, fuel or cooling systems before any lines, fittings
or related items are disconnected or removed.
Coolant
Coolant may be combustible. Coolant leaked or spilled onto hot surfaces
or electrical components can cause a fire. Clean up coolant spills
immediately.
