1. WARNING: Never remove the pressure relief cap while the engine is operating or when the cooling system is hot. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in damage to the cooling system or engine or personal injury. To avoid having scalding hot coolant or steam blow
out of the degas bottle when removing the pressure relief cap, wait until the engine has cooled, then wrap a thick cloth around the
pressure relief cap and turn it slowly. Step back while the pressure is released from the cooling system. When you are sure all the
pressure has been released, (still with a cloth) turn and remove the pressure relief cap. Once pressure is released, remove the pressure
relief cap.
2. Partially drain the cooling system.
