ON-VEHICLE CLEANING
1. CHECK FINS FOR BLOCKAGE
(a) Check that the radiator and condenser are not blocked with leaves, dirt, or insects. Clean the hose connections.
If the fins are blocked, wash them with water or a steam cleaner.
CAUTION:
- If the distance between the steam cleaner and core is too close, the fins may be damaged.
- Keep the following injection distance.
- If the fins are bent, straighten them with a screwdriver or pliers.
- Never apply water directly onto the electric components.
(b) Dry the fins with compressed air.
