This light informs you of a problem
with the Electronic Throttle Control
(ETC) system. The light will come
on when the ignition is first turned
ON and remain on briefly as a bulb
check. If the light does not come
see an authorized dealer for service as soon as
possible. If the light is flashing when the engine
is running, immediate service is required and
you may experience reduced performance, an
elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your
vehicle may require towing.
• Engine Temperature Warning Light
art=040400375.tif NO TRANS
This light warns of an overheated en-
gine condition. As temperatures rise
and the gauge approaches H, this
indicator will illuminate and a single
chime will sound after reaching a set threshold.
Further overheating will cause the temperature
gauge to pass H, the indicator will continuously
flash and a continuous chime will occur until
the engine is allowed to cool.
If the light turns on while driving, safely pull
over and stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is
on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the tempera-
ture reading does not return to normal, turn the
engine off immediately and call for service.
Refer to "If Your Engine Overheats" in "What To
Do In Emergencies" for more information.
• Transmission Temperature Light
art=040400794.tif NO TRANS
This light indicates that there is
excessive transmission fluid tem-
perature that might occur with se-
vere usage such as trailer towing.
It may also occur when operating
the vehicle in a high torque con-
verter slip condition, such as 4-wheel-drive
operation (e.g., snow plowing, off- road opera-
tion). If this light comes on, stop the vehicle and
run the engine at idle or faster, with the trans-
mission in NEUTRAL until the light goes off.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission
Temperature Indicator illuminated will eventu-
ally cause severe transmission damage or
transmission failure.
