5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Add coolant if necessary.
Water can be used in an emer-
gency if coolant is unavailable.
Start the engine and check that the radiator cooling fan oper-
ates and to check for coolant le
aks from the radiator or hoses.
If the fan is not operating: Stop the engine immediately and contact your Toyota
dealer.
If the fan is operating: Have the vehicle inspected at the nearest Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
■To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of
your vehicle
●If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until
the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, caus-
ing serious injuries such as burns.
● Keep hands and clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) away from
the fan and belts. Failure to do so may cause the hands or clothing to be
caught, resulting in serious injury.
● Do not loosen the radiator cap and coolant reservoir while the engine and
radiator are hot.
Serious injury, such as burns, may result from hot coolant and steam
released under pressure.
