Before exporting your vehicle to a foreign
country, contact the appropriate foreign
embassy or consulate. These officials can

proper conversion may damage the
effectiveness of your emission control system

damage caused by use of improper fuel.
Using leaded fuel may also result in difficulty
importing your vehicle back into the United
States.

if you spill coolant on hot engine parts. Do not put engine coolant in the
windshield washer fluid container. If
sprayed on the windshield, engine coolant
could make it difficult to see through the
