Draining water from the fuel filter
WARNING
The fuel filter for diesel engine plays an
important role of separating water from
fuel and accumulating the water in its
bottom.
Be sure to carefully wipe away any
water drained out in this manner,
because the fuel mixed in the water
might be ignited and cause a fire.
If water accumulates in the fuel filter, the
warning light comes on when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.

makes you difficult to start the engine.
CAUTION
If the water accumulated in the fuel
filter is not drained at proper times,
damages to the major parts such as
the fuel system can be caused by
water permeation in the fuel filter.
