Driving your vehicle
Transmission high temperature
• Under certain conditions, such as
repeated stop-and-go launches on
steep grades, sudden take off or
acceleration, or other harsh driving
conditions, the transmission clutch
temperatures will increase exces-
sively.
• When the clutch temperatures are
too high, the "Transmission temp is
high! Stop safely" warning mes-
sage will appear on the LCD dis-
play, a chime will sound, and the
transmission shifting may not be
smooth.
• If this occurs, pull over to a safe
location, stop the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the brakes
and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.
• If you ignore this warning, the driv-
ing condition may become worse.
You may experience abrupt shifts,
frequent shifts, or jerkiness.
• When the message "Trans cooled.
Resume driving." appears you can
continue to drive your vehicle.
• When possible, drive the vehicle
smoothly.
Transmission overheated
• If the vehicle continues to be driv-
en and the clutch temperatures
reach the maximum temperature
limit, the "Trans Hot! Park with
engine on" warning will be dis-
played. When this occurs the clutch
is disabled until the clutch cools to
normal temperatures.
• The warning will display a time to
wait for the transmission to cool.
• If this occurs, pull over to a safe
location, stop the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the brakes
and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.
