Reserve Tank
Cap
Removing the reserve tank cap while the engine is hot can cause the coolant to spray out,
seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and radiator cool down before removing the reserve tank cap.
WARNING
Pour the fluid slowly and carefully so you do not spill any. Clean up any spills immediately;
they can damage components in the engine compartment.
