FOREWORD
Coolant
•
In certain situations, the ethylene glycol contai-
ned in the coolant is flammable and its flame
is invisible. Should the ethylene glycol ignite,
even though its flame is invisible, it will cause
burns.
•
Prevent the coolant from coming into contact
with hot parts. These parts can be hot enough
to ignite the flame.
•
The coolant (ethylene glycol) may cause skin
irritation and is poisonous if swallowed.
•
If the coolant comes into contact with your skin,
immediately remove any contaminated clothes
or shoes and wash with soap and water. If con-
tact is made with your eyes, rinse thoroughly
with clean water and consult a doctor imme-
diately. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting so
as to prevent it from being absorbed into the
lungs. The person in question must drink cle-
an water and must also be taken immediately
to hospital. The product must be shown to the
medical staff.
•
In case of exposure to a high concentration of
vapours, the person in question must be moved
to an unpolluted area and if necessary, a doctor
must be called.
•
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engi-
ne is still hot. Since the coolant is under pressu-
re, it can spurt out violently and cause burns.
•
Coolant contains hazardous substances that are
harmful to the environment. When replacing
the coolant you must have the right equipment
for its disposal, in compliance with applicable
regulations.
•
Do not dispose of coolant in the environment.
•
Keep out of reach of children.
Hot parts
•
The engine and the exhaust system become
very hot and remain so for some time, even
after the engine is switched off. Wait for them
to cool before handling or intervening in parts
that are around them. Also use insulating glo-
ves.
