ENGINE COOLANT HOT

a safe temperature. This message will clear when
the coolant temperature drops to safe operating
temperature. Pressing any of the four DIC buttons,
if equipped, will acknowledge the message and clear it

with the four DIC buttons, pressing the trip odometer
reset stem will acknowledge the message and clear

ENGINE OVERHEATED
If the engine cooling system reaches unsafe
temperatures for operation, this message will appear in
the DIC and you will hear a chime. Stop and turn off the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so to avoid severe
damage. The message will clear when the engine has
cooled to a safe operating temperature.
Notice: If you drive your vehicle while the engine
is overheating, severe engine damage may occur.
If an overheat warning appears on the instrument
panel cluster and/or DIC, stop the vehicle as soon as
possible. Do not increase the engine speed above
normal idling speed. See Engine Overheating
