Engine Coolant Temperature
Warning Light
This light tells you that the
engine has overheated.
If this light comes on, you
should stop the vehicle and
turn the engine off as soon
as possible.
A warning chime should also sound if this light
comes on.
As a check, the light should come on for a few seconds
when you start the engine. See “Engine Overheating”
in the Index.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine
coolant temperature. If the
gage pointer moves into
the red area, the engine is
too hot!
This reading means the same thing as the warning
light
--
the engine coolant has overheated. You should
stop the car and turn the engine off as soon as possible.
See “Engine Overheating” in the Index.
