Jacking And Tire Changing - RAM 3500 2012 User Manual

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the
temperature gauge reads 240°F (116 °C) or greater pull over and stop the
vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until the pointer
drops back into the normal range 200–230°F (93–110°C). If the pointer
remains at 240°F (116°C) or greater and you hear a chime, turn the engine
off immediately and call for service.
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or
steam from your radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from under the
hood, do not open the hood until the radiator has had time to cool. Never
try to open a cooling system pressure cap when the radiator or coolant
bottle is hot.
