Engine overheating
Wait for the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap. WARNING! If the engine is not
cool when removing the radiator cap, hot fluid and steam could blow out under pressure
and burn you. [EWB03460] Place a thick rag over the cap and remove the cap slowly to allow any re-
maining pressure to escape.
TIP
If it is difficult to get the recommended coolant, tap water can be used temporarily, provided that
it is changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.
