Do-it-yourself service precautions
If you perform maintenance by yourself, be sure to follow the correct
procedures
as given in these sections.
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
Make sure that the indicator on the “POWER” switch and the “READY” indicator
are both off.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fans and engine drive belt.
Be careful not to touch the engine, power control unit, 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 and rags, in the
engine
compartment.
Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel. Fuel fumes are flammable.
When working near the electric cooling fans or radiator grille Be sure the “POWER” switch is off.
With the “POWER” switch in ON mode, the electric cooling fans may automatically start to run if the air conditioning is on and/or the coolant temperature is high.
Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc.
from getting
in your eyes.
NOTICE:
If you remove the air cleaner filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear due
to
dirt in the air. Also, a backfire could cause a fire in the engine compartment.
