Engine Temperature Warning Light
Red Telltale
Light
What It Means
Engine Temperature Warning Light
This light warns of an overheated engine condition. If the engine coolant temperature is too high, this
indicator will illuminate and a single chime will sound. If the temperature reaches the upper limit, a
continuous chime will sound for 4 minutes or until the engine is allowed to cool whichever comes
first.
If the light turns on while driving, safely pull over and stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn
it off. Also, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading
does not return to normal, turn the engine off immediately and call for service. Refer to “If Your En-
gine Overheats” in “What To Do In Emergencies” for further information.
