Owner Maintenance

WARNING

Do not perform maintenance work if you lack sufficient knowledge and experience 

or the proper tools and equipment to do the work. Have maintenance work done by a 

qualified technician:

Performing maintenance work on a vehicle is dangerous if not done properly. You can be 

seriously injured while performing some maintenance procedures.

If you must run the engine while working under the hood, make certain that you 

remove all jewelry (especially rings, bracelets, watches, and necklaces) and all 

neckties, scarves, and similar loose clothing before getting near the engine or cooling 

fan which may turn on unexpectedly:

Working under the hood with the engine running is dangerous. It becomes even more 

dangerous when you wear jewelry or loose clothing.

Either can become entangled in moving parts and result in injury.

Pull over to a safe location, then switch the ignition off and make sure the fan is not 

running before attempting to work near the cooling fan:

Working near the cooling fan when it is running is dangerous. The fan could continue 

running indefinitely even if the engine has stopped and the engine compartment 

temperature is high. You could be hit by the fan and seriously injured.

Do not leave items in the engine compartment:

After you have finished checking or doing servicing in the engine compartment, do not 

forget and leave items such as tools or rags in the engine compartment.

Tools or other items left in the engine compartment could cause engine damage or a fire 

leading to an unexpected accident.
