Important Safety Precautions
Engine Compartment
CAUTION
Steam from an overheated
engine can burn you badly.
Stay away from the engine if
you see or hear steam coming
from it.
Be careful when working
around the engine compart-
ment. Some engine parts can
get very hot and could burn
you.
CAUTION
(Continued)
Fans or other moving engine
parts can injure you badly. Keep
your hands, hair and loose
clothing away from moving
parts.
Exercise extreme caution
around the electric engine fan.
It sometimes starts by itself,
even when the engine is not
running.
CAUTION
It is highly dangerous to touch
live parts in the engine
compartment while the ignition
is on.
Batteries
CAUTION
Vehicle batteries can hurt you.
They contain acid and electrici-
ty that can burn and gas that
can explode or ignite. Use care
and follow any applicable
instructions when working near
a battery.
Do not let battery fluid touch
your skin. If you do get it in your
eyes or on your skin, flush the
place with water and get medi-
cal help immediately.

Important Safety Precautions
CAUTION
(Continued)
Do not use a match or flame
near a vehicle’s battery. If you
need more light, use a flash-
light.
Wear eye protection when
working near any battery.
If a battery has filler caps, be
sure the right amount of fluid is
there. If it is low, add water to
make sure that there is no
explosive gas present.
Towing Your Vehicle
CAUTION
To help avoid injury to you or
others:
• Do not let anyone ride in a
vehicle that is being towed.
• Do not tow faster than safe or
posted speeds.
• Be sure to secure any loose or
damaged parts.
• Never get under a vehicle
after it has been lifted.
• Always use separate safety
chains on each side of the
vehicle.
Cooling System
CAUTION
Do not run the engine if the
coolant is leaking. If the vehicle
loses all coolant, it could cause
an engine fire and you could be
burned.
Adding only plain water or a
liquid other than the recom-
mended coolant can be
dangerous. The engine could
overheat, but you would not
get the overheat warning. The
engine could catch on fire and
you or others could be burned.
