COOLING FAN COMPONENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZI-3.7] 

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.  

Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool. Even then, be very 
careful when removing the cap. Wrap a thick cloth around it and 
slowly turn it counterclockwise to the first stop. Step back while the 
pressure escapes.
