Attention.
- A hot engine and engine oil can cause various burns. It is necessary to turn off the engine and wait until it cools down.
- A vehicle raised on a lift but not supported by safety stands is dangerous. It may jump off and fall, causing death or serious injury. Do not work around or under a raised vehicle that is not supported by safety stands.
- Prolonged skin contact with used motor oil can cause skin cancer. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water immediately after handling motor oil.
- If engine oil is spilled on the exhaust system components, it must be wiped off immediately. Otherwise, after the exhaust system heats up, the spilled oil will cause unpleasant odors.
