Engine Overspeed Warning Light
It will also come on for a moment as a check when you
start your engine.
If it comes on when you're driving, reduce your engine
speed immediately.
Engine Shutdown Warning Light
For more information, see Engine Alarm and Automatic
Shutdown under Starting the Diesel Engine on
page 2-14.
If your vehicle has this
light, it will come on if your
engine is operating at
too many revolutions per
minute (rpm).
If your vehicle has the
engine shutdown feature,
this light will come on
when engine shutdown
is active.
Transmission Temperature Gage
When your ignition is on, the gage shows the
temperature of the transmission oil. A reading in the
warning zone, the red area beginning at 300°F (150°C),
means you must stop driving and check into the
cause. One possible cause is a low oil level in the
transmission.
Notice: If you drive your vehicle with the
transmission temperature gage above normal
operating range, you can damage the transmission.
This could lead to costly repairs that would not
be covered by your warranty. Do not drive your
vehicle while the transmission temperature gage
reading is above normal. See your dealer for service.
If you have an automatic
transmission and this
gage, it is located
above the switchbank in
the center of the
instrument panel.
