Ensure that the vehicle is properly supported and squarely positioned. To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is on a hoist, provide
additional support for the vehicle on the opposite end from which the components are being removed.
-
Do not allow smoking or the use of open flames in the area where work on the fuel or EVAP system is taking place. Anytime work is being
done on the fuel system, disconnect the negative battery cable, except for those tests where battery voltage is required.
