Turn the engine off and wait untilit cools down. Use extreme care
when removing the radiator cap.
Wrap a thick towel around it, and
turn it counterclockwise slowly to
the first stop. Step back while the
pressure is released from the

out under pressure, causing seri-
ous injury.

of time. Used engine oil contains
chemicals that have caused cancer
