SAFETY IN THE GARAGE
WARNING
Cooling fans may continue to operate after the
engine is switched off. When the engine is
hot, the cooling fans may also COMMENCE
operating after the engine is switched off and
continue operating for up to 10 minutes. Keep
clear of all fans while working in the engine
compartment.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should any part of
the fuel system be dismantled or replaced by
anyone other than a suitably qualified motor
vehicle technician. Failure to comply with this
instruction may result in fuel spillage with a
consequent serious risk of fire.
Poisonous fluids
Fluids used in motor vehicles are poisonous
and should not be consumed or brought into
contact with open wounds. These include;
battery acid, anti-freeze, brake and power
steering fluid, petrol, diesel, engine oil and
windscreen washer additives.
If you need to carry out maintenance, observe
the following safety precautions at all times:
•
Keep your hands and clothing away from
drive belts and pulleys.
•
If the vehicle has been driven recently, DO
NOT TOUCH exhaust and cooling system
components until the engine has cooled.
For your own safety, ALWAYS read and obey all
instructions printed on labels and containers.

•
DO NOT TOUCH electrical leads or
components while the engine is running, or
with the starter switch turned on.
Used engine oil
Prolonged contact with engine oil may cause
serious skin disorders, including dermatitis and
cancer of the skin. ALWAYS wash thoroughly
after contact.
NEVER leave the engine running in an
unventilated area - exhaust gases are
poisonous and extremely dangerous.
It is illegal to pollute drains, water courses
or soil. Use authorised waste disposal
sites to dispose of used oil and toxic chemicals.
DO NOT work beneath the vehicle with the
wheel changing jack as the only means of
support.

away from the engine compartment.
