When fail–safe mode is
activated
You have limited engine power
when in the fail safe mode, so drive
the vehicle with caution. The
vehicle will not be able to maintain
high speed operation and the
engine will run rough. Remember
that the engine is capable of
completely shutting down
automatically to prevent engine
damage, therefore:
1. Pull off the road as soon as
safely possible and turn off the
engine.
2. Arrange for the vehicle to be
taken to a service facility.
3. If this is not possible, wait a
short period for the engine to cool.
4. Check the coolant level and
replenish if low.
Never remove the coolant
reservoir cap while the
engine is running or hot.
5. Re start the engine and take
your vehicle to a service facility.
Driving the vehicle without
repairing the engine problem
increases the chance of engine
damage. Take your vehicle to a
service facility as soon as
possible.
