Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.

Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires you to be under the vehicle.

Make sure that the ignition switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the procedure.

Set the parking brake when working on the vehicle. If you have an automatic transaxle, set in park unless instructed otherwise for a specific operation.

Place supporters against the front and rear surfaces of the tires to help prevent the vehicle from moving.

Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid the danger of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Keep yourself and your clothing away from moving parts when the engine is running, especially the drive belts.

To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust manifold, tail pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.

Do not smoke while working on a vehicle.

To avoid injury, always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry, and loose clothing before beginning to work on a vehicle.

When it is necessary to work under the hood, keep phands and other objects clear of the radiator fan blades! Your vehicle may be equipped with a cooling fan that may turn on, even though the ignition switch is in the OFF position. For this reason care should be taken to ensure that the radiator fan electric motor is completely disconnected when working under the hood and the engine is not running.
