Disposal Of Used Engine Coolant
Used ethylene glycol based engine coolant is a regulated
substance requiring proper disposal. Check with your
local authorities to determine the disposal rules for your
community. Do not store ethylene glycol-based engine
coolant in open containers or allow it to remain in
puddles on the ground. Prevent ingestion by animals and
children. If ingested by a child, contact a physician
immediately. Clean up any ground spills immediately.
Coolant Pressure Cap
The coolant pressure cap must be fully tightened to
prevent loss of coolant and to insure that coolant will
return to the radiator from the coolant reserve tank.
WARNING!
Never add coolant when the engine is overheated.
Do not loosen or remove the pressure cap to cool an
overheated engine. Heat causes pressure build up in
the cooling system. To prevent scalding or injury, do
not remove the pressure cap while the system is hot
or under pressure.
CAUTION!
Recheck the cooling system to insure total system is
full of coolant.
