Overheating
When driving with a trailer in hilly terrain in a hot
climate there may be a risk of overheating.

An automatic gearbox selects the optimum
gear related to load and engine speed.

bol illuminates on the instrument panel
combined with a text message - follow the
recommendation given.

Do not lock the automatic transmission in
a higher gear than the engine "can cope

at a high gear with low engine revolutions.
