WARNING
Remember that the radiator fan (located at
the front of the engine compartment, behind

ommended. There is a risk of fire if the engine
is hot.
WARNING
The ignition system works at a very high and
hazardous voltage. The car's electrical system
must always be in ignition position 0 when
work is being performed in the engine com-
partment.
