When the engine is overheated
Notice
Under extreme conditions (such as dragging,
towing, climbing, overload, etc.), the engine
may overheat and the power of the whole
vehicle will decrease.
Overheating symptoms
The water temperature gauge is in the red zone.
The virtual instrument has alarm information
and sounds prompts.
Engine accelerates weakly.
There is steam emanating from the hood.
A/C compressor may stop working automatically.
Handling
1. Parking the vehicle at a safe place and turn
off the vehicle. (Switch the power switch to
LOCK mode).
If you are using the A/C or the wading mode,
please turn off.
2. Check if steam is emanating from the hood.
If no steam is emanated, you can open the
engine hood.
If steam is emanating, wait until there is
no more steam, then open up the hood.
3. Check the coolant level.
Check the coolant level. Please top up the
coolant if the coolant level is too low. And
check for pipeline leakage; if there is any
leakage, please contact service provider.
4. Check whether there is any foreign object
in the core of the radiator.
A foreign object may affect the heat
dissipation, please clean it up.
5. After starting the vehicle, please check if
the coolant fan is running. (Confirm if the
fan is running by checking the sound and
air flow.)
If the fan is not working, shut down the
engine and contact service provider.
If the fan is running normally, wait for the
water temperature to begin to drop, then
turn off the engine.
⚠ Warning
Do not open the engine hood immediately
if you see steam emanating from the
engine hood. Doing so may cause serious
injury such as burns.
When the temperature of radiator is high,
do not open the overflow tank lid.
Otherwise, exiting steam or coolant may
cause severe injuries such as burns.
When opening the cover of the overflow
tank lid, do not touch or get close to the
fan and belt. Also, open the cover slowly
after covering it with a piece of cloth.
When the engine is running, do not touch
or get close to the fan and belt. Otherwise,
there is a risk of your hands or clothing
becoming caught within and of severe
injury as a result.
Do not refill coolant in an overheated
engine. If a coolant is suddenly added, it is
easy to damage the engine. Add a coolant
after the engine is completely cooled.
⚠ Caution
If the water temperature gauge comes to the
red warning range again, head to your nearest
service provider for inspection as soon as
possible.
