HANDLING NOTE
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot
fluid and steam may be blown out under

injury.
When the engine has cooled, open the radi-
ator cap by the following procedure:
Place a thick rag, like a towel, over the radi-
ator cap, slowly rotate the cap counter-
clockwise to the detent. This procedure
allows any residual pressure to escape.
When the hissing sound has stopped,
press down on the cap while turning coun-
terclockwise and remove it.
