How fail-safe cooling works
•
Standard cluster
•
Optional cluster
If the engine overheats, the engine will automatically switch to
alternating cylinder operation. Each disabled cylinder acts as an air
pump and cools the engine.
When this occurs:
•
if your vehicle is equipped with analog gauges, the engine coolant
temperature gauge will move to the H (hot) area
•
if your vehicle is equipped with digital gauges, the engine coolant
temperature gauge will illuminate all eight bars and a tone will sound
every five seconds for a minute
•
the symbol will illuminate
•
the Check Engine indicator light will illuminate.
The vehicle will still operate, however:
•
the engine power will be limited.
•
the air conditioning system will be disabled.
Continued operation will increase the engine temperature:
