WARNING
The ignition should always be completely
switched off before performing any operations

very high voltages. Special safety precautions
must be followed to prevent injury.
Always turn the ignition off when:

• Do not touch any part of the distributor
ignition system while the engine is running.
This may result in unintended
movements and body injury.
