Car at the service station (Freelander 2)

When working on a vehicle at a service station, the following requirements must always be observed:

• To prevent the vehicle from moving forward or backward, apply the parking brake or place wheel chocks under the wheels.
• If possible, remove the key from the ignition before performing any work on the vehicle.
• When the engine is running, proper ventilation or a suction hose must be used to remove exhaust gases.
• If it is necessary to lift the vehicle and remove the wheels, ensure that there is sufficient space to do so.
• When performing any work in the engine compartment, always cover the fenders with protective covers.
• If possible, when working on the engine under the vehicle or on a jacked-up vehicle, disconnect the battery.

Before disconnecting the battery, read the section of this manual entitled "Disconnecting/Connecting the Battery".

When performing arc welding on a vehicle, always disconnect the generator electrical wires to avoid possible damage to the internal components of the generator.

When performing welding work on a vehicle, an appropriate fire extinguisher must always be ready.
