Engine Overheating
To reduce potential overheating of the
engine in city traffic, while stationary,
place the transmission in N (Neutral),
but do not increase the engine idle
speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to
slow down an impending overheat
condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on,
turn it off. The A/C system adds heat
to the engine cooling system and
turning the A/C off can help remove
this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature
control to maximum heat, the mode
control to floor and the blower
control to high. This allows the
heater core to act as a supplement
to the radiator and aids in removing
heat from the engine cooling system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system
could damage the engine. If the
temperature gauge is positioned on
the red zone "H" (refer to "Instrument
Cluster" in section "Dashboard
Instruments and Controls"), pull over
