TEMP
These lights tell you that your engine coolant has
overheated or your radiator cooling fans are not working.
If you have been operating your vehicle under normal
driving conditions, you should pull
off
the road, stop
your
vehicle and
turn
the engine
off
as soon as possible.
In the section “Problems on the Road,” this manual
explains what to do. See “Engine Overheating” in
the Index.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage (Option)
If you have the gage cluster,
you
have a gage that shows
the engine coolant
temperature.
If
the gage
pointer moves into the red
area your engine
is
too hot!
The engine coolant temperature gage indicates the
coolant temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. The
Canadian instrument panels indicate the coolant
temperature in degrees Celsius.
That reading means the same thing as the warning light.
It
means that your engine coolant has overheated. If
you
have been operating your vehicle under normal driving
conditions, you should pull off the road, stop your
vehicle and
turn
off
the engine as soon as possible.
