id0112b5800300

Warning

•  Remove and install all parts when the engine is cold, otherwise they can cause severe burns or serious injury.

•  Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool. Even then, be very careful when removing the cap. Wrap a thick cloth around it and slowly turn it counterclockwise 2.5 turns. Step back while the pressure escapes.

•  When you are sure all the pressure is gone, turn the cap using the cloth, and remove it.

Note

•  If the “FL22” mark is shown on or near the cooling system cap, use FL22 type engine coolant.

•  FL22 type engine coolant is shipped as a diluted solution (55% coolant, 45% water). Use the solution as is when replacing coolant.
