ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric
acid which is corrosive and poisonous. Hy-
drogen gas is emitted from the battery which
is explosive when combined with oxygen.
The following precautions must be strictly
observed to avoid personal injury or dam-
age to the vehicle.
The cooling fan is controlled by engine
coolant temperature and may sometimes
operate even when the engine is not run-
ning. Use extreme caution when working
near the blades of the cooling fan so that
you are not injured by a rotating fan blade.
As the engine coolant temperature decreas-
es, the fan will automatically shut off. This
is a normal condition.
o
If battery electrolyte is spilled onto skin or
into eyes, the effected area must be flushed
with copious amounts of water and medical
assistance sought.
G230A02FC
The power steering fluid level should be
checked daily.
The engine cooling fan should operate before
the temperature gauge reaches the upper por-
tion of the scale and the condenser fan should
operate whenever the air conditioning is in use.
o
If battery electrolyte is ingested, copious
amounts of water or milk followed by an ant-
acid (raw egg or milk of magnesia) must be
drunk. Vomiting should not be induced and
medical assistance must be sought.
To check the power steering fluid level, be
sure the ignition is "OFF", then check to make
certain that the power steering fluid level is
between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings
on the fluid reservoir.
o
Batteries must only be charged in well venti-
lated areas from which naked lights or sourc-
es of sparks are excluded.

Ensure that children, pets or other unautho-
rized persons are kept away from batteries.
Do not allow anything to bridge the positive
(+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery.
Never invert the battery.
Gasoline engine
Grinding noise from power steering pump
may be heard immediately after the engine
is started in extremely cold condition
(below -4°F). If the noise stops during warm
up, there is no abnormal function in the
system. This is due to a power steering
fluid characteristic in extremely cold con-
ditions.
The battery fitted during production is of the
"Maintenance Free" type.
