steering maneuvers may have occurred, which caused an

over temperature condition in the power steering system.

You will lose power steering assistance momentarily

until the over temperature condition no longer exists.

Once driving conditions are safe, then pull over and let

vehicle idle for a few moments until the light turns off.

Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information (EVIC)” in “Un-

derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for further informa-

tion.
NOTE:

• Even if power steering assistance is no longer opera-

tional, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. Under

these conditions there will be a substantial increase in

steering effort, especially at very low vehicle speeds

and during parking maneuvers.

• If the condition persists, see your authorized dealer for

service.
