Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may result in seri-
ous injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from
under the hood, do not open the
hood until the steam has sub-
sided. The engine compart-
ment may be very hot.
●Keep hands and clothing (espe-
cially a tie, a scarf or a muffler)
away from the fan and belts.
Failure to do so m ay cause the
hands or clothing to be caught,
resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the radiator cap
and the coolant reservoir cap
while the engin e and radiator
are hot.
High temperature steam or
coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine coolant
Add coolant slowly after the
engine has cooled down suffi-
ciently. 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 precau-
tions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant
with foreign matter (such as
sand or dust, etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.
If the vehicle becomes
stuck
Carry out the following pro-
cedures if the tires spin or

heat buildup and possible tire fail-
ure.
