patterns. When the transmission fluid temperature
returns to normal, the display will turn off and the
transmission shifting patterns will return to normal.
Notice: If you keep driving your vehicle with the
transmission TRANS FLUID HOT message
displayed, you can damage the transmission. This
could lead to costly repairs that may not be covered
under your warranty.
The following situations can cause the transmission to
operate at higher temperatures:
Towing a trailer
@
Hot outside air temperatures
Hauling a large or heavy load
Low transmission fluid level

on a frequent basis, see Scheduled Maintenance
on
page 6-5 for the proper transmission maintenance
intervals.
