COOLANT REPLACEMENT

CAUTION:

• 

  DO not remove the reserve tank cap, radiator cap sub-assembly or radiator drain cock plug, while the engine and radiator assembly are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.

• 

  Because the engine, radiator assembly, No. 1 radiator hose and No. 3 radiator hose are extremely hot, do not perform these procedures without wearing protective gloves.

• Performing these procedures without wearing protective gloves could result in burns.

• 

  When checking the thermostat open timing, do not touch rotating components such as the cooling fan.

• Touching rotating components such as the cooling fan could result in your hand or clothing getting caught and pulled in.
