counterclockwise a little to let the pressure escape through the vinyl tube. 
After relieving the steam pressure, remove the cap by slowly turning it counterclockwise.

CAUTION
Do not use alcohol or methanol anti-freeze or any engine coolants mixed with alcohol or methanol anti-freeze. The use of an improper
anti-freeze can cause corrosion of the aluminum components.

11. By referring to the section on coolant, select an appropriate concentration for safe operating temperature within the range of 30 to 60 %. Use
