●If steam is seen coming from under
the hood, do not open the hood
until the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very
hot.
●Keep hands and clothing (espe-
cially a tie, a scarf or a muffler)
away from the fans and belts. Fail-
ure to do so may cause the hands or clothing to be caught, resulting in
serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reservoir
caps while the engine and radiator
are hot. High temperature steam or coolant
could spray out.

Add coolant slowly after the engine
has cooled down sufficiently. Adding
cool coolant to a hot engine too
quickly can cause damage to the engine.
■To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant
with foreign matter (such as sand or
dust etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.

■When attempting to free a stuck
vehicle
If you choose to push the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure
the surrounding area is clear to avoid
striking other vehicl es, objects or peo- ple. The vehicle may also lunge for-
ward or lunge back suddenly as it
becomes free. Use extreme caution.
■When shifting the shift lever
(vehicles with an automatic
transmission)
Be careful not to shift the shift lever
with the accelerator pedal depressed.

cause an accident resulting in death
or serious injury.
NOTICE
■To avoid damaging the transmis-
sion and other components
●Avoid spinning the rear wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal
more than necessary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even
after these procedures are per-
formed, the vehicle may require towing to be freed.
