Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine
coolant temperature.
If the gage pointer moves into the red warning zone,
your engine is hot. To prevent engine overheating, the
air conditioning compressor will turn off automatically,
a fast-pulsed chime will sound, and the message
ENGINE HOT
...
A/C O W will appear in the information
center. As the engine cools down, the air conditioning
compressor will automatically turn back on.
If the coolant temperature is over 261
O F
(127 "C),
the message HOT. ..STOP ENGINE will appear. 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.
The section "Problems on the Road," in this manual
explains what to do. See "Engine Overheating" in
the Index.
If your coolant level is low, the message LOW ENGINE
COOLANT will appear on the Driver Information
Center. Check your coolant level
as soon
as possible.
See "Engine Coolant" in the Index.
