Cooling Fan Motor (For Hatchback) -- Removal |
- CAUTION:
- Be sure that the ignition is off if you work near the electric cooling fans or radiator grille. With the ignition on, the electric cooling fans may automatically start to run if the engine coolant temperature is high and/or the air conditioning is on.
- NOTICE:
- To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the water filler cap sub-assembly while the engine and radiator assembly are still hot. Thermal expansion will cause hot coolant and steam to blow out from the radiator assembly.
