stops,  raise  the  bonnet  to  ventilate  the engine compartment. Restart the engine.
WARNINGl Do  not  open  the  bonnet  while  steam  is
coming  from  the  engine  compartment.  It
could  cause  steam  or  hot  water  to  spurt out, causing burns. Hot water could spurt
out  even  when  there  is  no  steam  coming out,  and  some  parts  will  be  very  hot.  Be
very careful when opening the bonnet.
l Be  careful  of  hot  steam,  which  could  be
blowing off the reserve tank cap.WARNINGl Do  not  attempt  to  remove  the  radiator
cap while the engine is hot.
3. Confirm that the cooling fan (A) is turn-
ing.

serve  tank  if  necessary  (refer  to  the
“Maintenance” section).
WARNINGl Make  sure  that  the  engine  has  cooled
down  before  removing  the  radiator  cap (C),  because  hot  steam  or  boiling  water
otherwise  will  gush  from  the  filler  port and may scald you.CAUTIONl Do  not  add  coolant  while  the  engine  is  hot.
Suddenly  adding  cold  coolant  could  damage the  engine.  Wait  for  the  engine  to  cool
down, then add coolant a little at a time.6. Examine  the  radiator  hoses  for  coolant
leakage  and  the  drive  belt  for  looseness
or damage.
If there is anything wrong with the cool-
ing  system  or  drive  belt,  we  recommend
you to have it checked and repaired.Bleeding the fuel system
E00800701423
The fuel system should be bled to remove air
as  described  below  if  the  fuel  supply  is  ex- hausted during travel.

If the engine does not start, repeat the process
above.
CAUTIONl Do  not  smoke  or  have  any  other  open  flame
near  the  vehicle  while  bleeding  the  fuel  sys-
tem.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any spilt fuel
which could ignite and cause a fire.Removal of water from the
fuel filter E00800801525

times  in  order  to  force  the  water  out
through the drain plug (A).
3. Tighten  the  drain  plug  (A)  when  water
no longer comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system. (Refer  to  “Bleeding  the  fuel  system”  onpage 8-11.)
5. Check  to  be  sure  that  the  fuel  filter  indi-
cation  lamp  illuminates  when  the  igni- tion  switch  is  turned  to  “ON”  or  the  op-
eration  mode  is  put  in  ON,  and  that  it
goes  off  when  the  engine  is  started.  If  in
doubt,  we  recommend  you  to  consult  a specialist for necessary information.
CAUTIONl Do  not  smoke  or  have  any  other  open  flame
near  the  vehicle  while  bleeding  the  fuel  sys-
tem.
