DRAINING

WARNING

DO NOT remove radiator cap or drain antifreeze unless engine is cold. Remove radiator cap in two steps.

First, place a thick cloth over cap and slowly turn cap left to first stop. Pause and allow pressure to escape.

Turn cap further left until it can be removed. This is a pressurized cooling system and escaping steam, hot

water or coolant will cause serious burns.

Remove cap (1).
