■
Overheating
If you observe the following, your vehicle may be overheating.
● The engine coolant temperature gauge enters the red zone or a loss of
power is experienced.
●
Steam is coming from under the hood.
CAUTION
■
To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of
your vehicle
●
If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until
the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, caus-
ing serious injury such as burns.
●
Keep hands and clothing away from the fan and other belts while the
engine is running.
●
Do not loosen the coolant reservoir cap while the engine and radiator are
hot.
Serious injury, such as burns, may result from hot coolant and steam
released under pressure.
NOTICE
■ When adding engine coolant
Wait until the engine has cooled down before adding engine coolant.
When adding coolant, do so slowly. Adding cool coolant to a hot engine too
quickly can cause damage to the engine.
Have the vehicle checked at the nearest Toyota dealer as soon as
possible.
