Cause What to do
Carefully bring the car to a stop,
switch off the engine and allow it to
cool down. Do not open the hood;
otherwise, there is a risk of injury from
scalding. Contact your MINI dealer.
Continue driving at more moderate
speed so that the engine can cool
down. Have the engine checked with-
out delay if the situation reoccurs.
Switch off all unnecessary electrical
consumers. Have the battery checked
without delay.
Have the battery checked as soon as
possible.
