Engine
Overheating
You
will
find
a
coolant temperature gage
on
your
vehicle’s instrument panel. See “Gages”
in
the Index.
If
Steam
Is
Coming
From
Your
Engine
A
CAUTION:
Steam from an overheated engine can burn you
badly, even if you just open the hood. Stay
away
from the engine
if
you see or hear steam coming
from
it.
Just turn it
off
and get everyone away
from the vehicle until it cools down. Wait until
there is no sign
of
steam or coolant before you
open the hood.
If
you keep driving when
your
engine is
overheated, the liquids in it can catch fire. You
or
others could be badly burned. Stop your engine if
it overheats, and get out of the vehicle until the
engine is cool.
NOTICE:
If
your engine catches fire because you keep
driving with no coolant, your vehicle can be
badly damaged. The costly repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
