Technician Safety Information

Safety precautions

WARNING: When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, due to the cramped conditions, pay attention to the following:
^ Route all sorts of lines/hoses (e.g. for fuel, hydraulics, evaporative emissions system, coolant, refrigerant, brake fluid and vacuum lines and hoses) and electrical wiring so that the original positions are restored.
^ Make sure sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components.

Observe the following if test and measuring instruments are required during a test drive:
^ Test and measuring instruments must be secured to rear seat and operated by a 2nd person from this location.
^ If test and measuring instruments are operated from front passenger's seat and the vehicle is involved in an accident, there is a possibility that the person sitting in this seat may receive serious injuries when the airbag is triggered.
