CHANGING ENGINE COOLANTY51D-V-E01-A426F257-7E1C-4FDD-BCE7-CC70502D59EAMajor cooling system repairs should be
performed by an INFINITI retailer. The
service procedures can be found in the

Improper servicing can result in reduced
heater performance and engine overheat-
ing.
WARNING
. To avoid the danger of being scalded,
never change the coolant when the
engine is hot.
. Never remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. Serious burns could be
caused by high pressure fluid escaping
from the radiator.
. Avoid direct skin contact with used
coolant. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as
soon as possible.
. Keep coolant out of reach of children and
pets.
Engine coolant must be disposed of
properly. Check your local regulations.
