run flat lexus LS400 1994 Keys and Doors / 1994 LS400: IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
153 CAUTION:
When the engine is running, keep hands and clothing
away from the moving fan and engine drive belt.
4. If the engine drive belt is broken or loose, or the coolant is
leaking, stop the engine immediately. Call a Lexus dealer for
assistance.
5. If the engine drive belt is O.K. and there are no obvious
leaks, you may help the engine cool down more quickly by
running it at about 1500 rpm for a few minutes with the
accelerator pedal lightly depressed.
6. Check the coolant reservoir. If it is dry, add water to the
reservoir while the engine is running. Fill it about half full.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to remove the reservoir cap when the
engine and radiator are hot. Serious injury could result
from scalding hot fluid and steam blown out under
pressure.
7. After the engine coolant temperature has cooled to normal,
again check the coolant level in the reservoir. If necessary,
bring it up to half full again. Serious coolant loss indicates a
leak in the system. You should have it checked as soon as
possible by your Lexus dealer.
IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE

traffic.
