FEATURES

Engine Overheat Indicators

Flashing Indicator

If the indicator flashes, continued operation could result in serious
engine damage. The system will automatically reduce engine power and
create a misfire condition. Stop the engine immediately. Allow the
engine to cool down.

NOTE:

If engine overheating seems to be caused by something other than

poor cooling conditions, see your dealer for service.

Engine-Cooling Actions

If the engine is overheating, promptly take action to cool the engine.

• Drive in loose snow.
• View the coolant level. Do not open the pressure cap while the engine

is hot. Add coolant if the level is low.

• Stop the engine and allow it to cool down.

NOTICE: If you must continue to operate while the indicator light is illuminated,

drive slowly and stop the engine frequently to allow it to cool down.
