Turn and Lane-Change Signals
The ignition must be switched ON to use the turn and lane-change signals. Turn Signals Move the signal lever down (for a left turn) or up (for a right turn) to the stop position. The signal will self-cancel after the turn is completed. If the indicator light continues to flash after a turn ...

Engine Coolant Replacement [Mzr 2.0, Mzr 2.5]
WARNING: Never remove the cooling system cap or loosen the radiator drain plug while the engine is running, or when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding engine coolant and steam may shoot out and cause serious injury. It may also damage the engine and cooling system. Tu ...
