before removing the pressure cap (9). Failure to do so can
result in personal injury from heated coolant spray or steam.
Press the red button on the radiator pressure cap to allow
the pressure to escape. Turn the radiator cap slowly counter-
clockwise to the safety stop, then continue to turn until cap
is free to be removed.
The coolant level should be in the upper field of the sight gauges
