Notice:

If your engine catches fire because

you keep driving with no coolant, your vehicle
can be badly damaged. The costly repairs
would not be covered by your warranty. See

Overheated Engine Protection Operating Mode
on page 380

for information on driving to a

safe place in an emergency.

If No Steam Is Coming From Your
Engine

If you get an engine overheat warning but see or
hear no steam, the problem may not be too serious.
Sometimes the engine can get a little too hot
when you:

Climb a long hill on a hot day.

Stop after high-speed driving.

Idle for long periods in traffic.

Tow a trailer.

If you get the overheat warning with no sign of
steam, try this for a minute or so:

1. If the air conditioner is on, turn it off.

2. Turn on the heater to full hot at the highest fan

speed and open the windows as necessary.

3. If you are in a traffic jam, shift to NEUTRAL (N);

otherwise, shift to the highest gear while
driving — DRIVE (D).

If the vehicle no longer has the overheat warning,
you can drive. Just to be safe, drive slower for
about 10 minutes. If the warning does not
come back on, you can drive normally.
