Engine Coolant Temperature Gage

This gage shows the engine
coolant temperature. If the
gage pointer moves into the
red warning zone, your
engine is hot.

To prevent engine overheating, the air conditioning
compressor will turn off automatically, a fast

-

pulsed

chime will sound, and the message ENGINE HOT...A/C
OFF will appear in the information center. As the engine
cools down, the air conditioning compressor will
automatically turn back on.

If the coolant temperature is over 261

_F (127_C), the

message HOT...STOP ENGINE will appear. 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.

The “Problems on the Road” section in this manual
explains what to do. See “Engine Overheating” in
the Index.

If your coolant level is low, the message LOW ENGINE
COOLANT will appear on the Driver Information
Center. Check your coolant level as soon as possible.
See “Engine Coolant” in the Index.
