Removal And Installation: Notes
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping from the radiator. Wrap a thick cloth around the cap. Slowly push down and turn it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape. Carefully remove the cap by pushing it down and turning it all the way.
CAUTION:
Perform these steps after the coolant temperature has cooled sufficiently.
NOTE:
When removing components such as hoses, tubes/line, etc., cap or plug openings to prevent fluid from spilling.
