low, add coolant until it reaches the
MAX mark.

1How to Handle Overheating
If the coolant is leaking, contact a dealer for repairs.
Use water as an emergency/temporary measure only.
Have a dealer flush the system with proper antifreeze
as soon as possible.
Continuing to drive with the Stop Driving When
Safe. Engine Temperature Too Hot message on
the multi-information display may damage the
engine.

engine is hot can cause the coolant to spray
out, seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and radiator cool
down before removing the radiator cap.
