Engine Overheating - Chevrolet 2015 City Express Owner's Manual

10-16 Vehicle Care
If the cooling system frequently
requires coolant, have it checked by
your dealer.
Changing Engine Coolant
A dealer can change the engine
coolant. The service procedure can
be found in the service manual. See
Service Publications Ordering
Information on page 13-11.
Improper servicing can result in
reduced heater performance and

engine overheating.

Warning
To avoid the danger of being
scalded, never change the
coolant when the engine
is hot.
Never remove the radiator or
engine coolant reservoir cap
when the engine is hot.
Serious burns could be
caused by high pressure fluid
escaping from the radiator.
Warning (Continued)
Avoid direct skin contact with
used coolant. If skin contact
is made, wash thoroughly
with soap or hand cleaner as
soon as possible.
Keep coolant out of the reach
of children and pets.
Engine coolant must be disposed of
properly. Check your local
regulations.
Engine Overheating
The vehicle has an engine coolant
temperature warning light on the
instrument cluster to warn of engine
overheating. See Engine Coolant
Temperature Warning Light on
page 5-17.
If the decision is made not to lift the
hood when this warning appears,
but instead get service help right
away, see Roadside Assistance
(Continued)
Program on page 13-5.
If the decision is made to lift the
hood, make sure the vehicle is
parked on a level surface.
Then check to see if the engine
cooling fans are running. If the
engine is overheating, the fans
should be running. If they are not,
do not continue to run the engine
and have the vehicle serviced.
See if the engine cooling fan speed
increases when idle speed is
doubled by pushing the accelerator
pedal down. If it does not, the
vehicle needs service. Turn off the
engine.
Caution
Running the engine without
coolant may cause damage or a
fire. Vehicle damage would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
