Coolant Temperature Display
An indication of the engine coolant temperature is displayed,
with ignition on, in the form of a vertical bar graph in the instru-
ment panel right hand screen. To optimise display space, the
shown scale commences at 140°F, and finishes at 250°F.
The running temperature will fluctuate a certain amount as
the operating conditions change, and during periods of idling
or in heavy traffic, the temperature may rise to over 212°F, with
the cooling fans switching on at half speed at approximately
208°F, and full speed at approximately 217°F. In order to prompt
closer monitoring by the driver of temperatures over 230°F, the
temperature icon will flash and be accompanied by the message
'Engine too hot' displayed above the car silhouette.
The pressurised cooling system has a boiling point of over
250°F, but if the temperature approaches the top of the display,
the car should be stopped and the engine allowed to idle for a
few minutes whilst the temperature is monitored.
NOTICE
• If the temperature continues to rise, there is a danger of
engine damage; switch off and seek qualified assistance.
• After a heavy snowfall, ensure that the radiator cooling outlet
grille in the front body is cleared of snow before driving the
car, or overheating may result.
