ENGRADIATOR
EC456000HANDLING NOTE
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap
when the engine and radiator are
hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam
may be blown out under pressure,
which could cause serious injury.
When the engine has cooled, open
the radiator cap by the following
procedure:
Place a thick rag, like a towel, over
the radiator cap, slowly rotate the
cap counterclockwise to the
detent. This procedure allows any
residual pressure to escape. When
the hissing sound has stopped,
press down on the cap while turn-
ing counterclockwise and remove
it.

REMARQUES CONCERNANT LA
MANIPULATION
AVERTISSEMENT
Ne pas enlever le bouchon du radia-
teur quand le moteur et le radiateur
sont chauds. Du liquide chaud et de la
vapeur risquent de jaillir sous forte
pression et de provoquer des brûlures
graves.
Une fois le moteur refroidi, ouvrir le
bouchon du radiateur en procédant
comme suit:
Placer un chiffon épais, une serviette
par exemple, sur le bouchon et tour-
ner lentement ce dernier dans le sens
inverse des aiguilles d’une montre
jusqu’au point de détente. Ceci per-
met à la pression résiduelle de
s’échapper. Quand le sifflement
s’arrête, appuyer sur le bouchon tout
en le faisant tourner dans le sens
inverse des aiguilles d’une montre
puis l’enlever.
CONTROLE
