IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by
taking the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, place the transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not
increase engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the
engine cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control to maximum heat, the mode control to
floor and the blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supple-
ment to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
WARNING!
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.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the pointer rises
to the
H
(red) mark, the instrument cluster will sound a chime. When safe, pull
over and stop the vehicle with the engine at idle. Turn off the air conditioning and
wait until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on
the
H (red) mark for more than a minute, turn the engine off immediately and call
for service.
TIRE SERVICE KIT
Small punctures up to 1/4 inch (6 mm) in the tire tread can be sealed with Tire Ser-
vice Kit. Foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) should not be removed from the tire.
Tire Service Kit can be used in outside temperatures down to approximately -4°F
(-20°C).
This kit will provide a temporary tire seal, allowing you to drive your vehicle up to
100 miles (160 km) with a maximum speed of 55 mph (90 km/h).
