WA R N I N G
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.
ItemsParts and tools■When working on the engine 
compartment
●Make sure that “IGNITION ON” 
on the multi-information display 
and the “READY” indicator are 
both off.
●Keep hands, clothing and tools 
away from the moving fan.
●Be careful not to touch the 
engine, power control unit, radi-
ator, 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 compart-
ment.
●Do not smoke, c ause sparks or 
expose an open flame to fuel or 
the battery. Fuel and battery 
fumes are flammable.
●Be extremely cautious when 
working on the battery. It con-
tains poisonous and corrosive 
sulfuric acid.
■When working near the elec-
tric cooling fan or radiator 
grille
Be sure the power switch is OFF.
With the power switch in ON, the 
electric cooling fa n may automati-
cally start to run if the air condi-
tioning is on and/or the coolant 
temperature is high. ( P.581)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent 
flying or falling material, fluid 
spray, etc., from getting in your 
eyes.
