| Title: M20A-FKS (FUEL): FUEL SYSTEM: PRECAUTION; 2023 - 2025 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback [11/2022 - ] | ||
PRECAUTION
CAUTION:
-
Never perform work on fuel system components near any possible ignition sources.
- Vaporized fuel could ignite, resulting in a serious accident.
-
Do not perform work on fuel system components without first disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
- Sparks could cause vaporized fuel to ignite, resulting in a serious accident.
-
The fuel tank assembly is very heavy. Be sure to follow the procedure described in the repair manual, or the fuel tank assembly may fall off the engine lifter.
-
To prevent serious injury due to fuel spray from the high-pressure fuel lines, always discharge fuel system pressure before removing any fuel system components.
