United States Canada
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature. If the
gage pointer moves into the red area, the light comes
on and you hear a chime, your engine is too hot!
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.
This light comes on
briefly when you turn
your ignition ON.
If this light comes on and stays on, the coolant level in
your vehicle is low. See Engine Coolant on page 5-19.
If the light is on along with an overheat warning,
you may have a serious overheating problem, see
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage on page 3-30.
Notice: Damage to your engine from neglected
coolant problems can be costly and is not covered
by your warranty.
See Engine Overheating on page 5-23 for information
on
what to do. Your vehicle should be serviced as soon
as possible.
