Warning Light
This light comes on briefly
while starting the vehicle.
If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by the dealer/
retailer. If the system is working normally the indicator
light goes off.
Notice: Driving with the engine coolant temperature
warning light on could cause the vehicle to
overheat. See Engine Overheating
on page 6‑34
.
The vehicle's engine could be damaged, and it
might not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Never
drive with the engine coolant temperature warning
light on.
The engine coolant temperature warning light comes on
when the engine has overheated.
If this happens pull over and turn off the engine as soon
as possible. See Engine Overheating
on page 6‑34
for
more information.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
The vehicle has an
engine coolant
temperature gauge.
With the ignition turned
to ON/RUN, this gauge
shows the engine coolant
temperature.
If the gauge pointer moves into the red area, the engine
is too hot because the engine coolant has overheated.
If the vehicle is operating under normal driving
conditions, pull off the road, stop the vehicle and
turn off the engine as soon as possible.
See Engine Overheating on page 6‑34.
