CAUTION

The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that may

move suddenly, become hot, or become electrically energized. To avoid death

or serious injury observe the following precautions.

 When working on the engine compartment

 Keep hands, clothing, and tools away from the moving fan and engine

drive belt.

 Be careful not to touch the engine, radiator, exhaust manifold, etc. right

after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other fluids may also be hot.

 Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper or rags, in the

engine compartment.

 Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel or the bat-

tery. Fuel and battery fumes are flammable.

 Be extremely cautious when working on the battery. It contains poisonous

and corrosive sulfuric acid.

 Take care because brake fluid can harm your hands or eyes and damage

painted surfaces.

If fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush the affected area with

clean water immediately.

If you still experience discomfort, see a doctor.

 When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
