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 Coolant Hot – AC
(Air Conditioning) Off
This symbol appears with
the Engine Hot – AC Off

This message displays when the engine coolant
becomes hotter than the normal operating temperature.

conditioning compressor will turn back on. You can
continue to drive your vehicle.
If this message continues to appear, have the system
