WARNING
■ Pre-driving check
Check that the hood is fully closed
and locked.
If the hood is not locked properly,
it may open while the vehicle is in
motion and cause an accident,
which may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
■ To prevent burns
Do not touch the pipes when the
compressor is operating or after it
is stopped, because the pipes are
hot.
Touching by hands before the
pipes cool down may cause
burns.
