5-10

If you no longer have the overheat warning, you can
drive. Just to be safe, drive slower for about 10 minutes.
If the warning doesn’t come back on, you can
drive normally.

If the warning continues, pull over, stop, and park your
vehicle right away.

If there’s still no sign of steam, push down the
accelerator until the engine speed is about twice as fast
as normal idle speed for at least three minutes while
you’re parked. If you still have the warning, turn off
the engine and get everyone out of the vehicle
until it
cools down.

You may decide not to lift the hood but to get service
help right away.

Cooling System

When you decide it’s safe to lift the hood, here’s what
you’ll see:

A. Coolant Recovery Tank

B. Radiator Pressure Cap

C. Engine Fan

If the coolant inside the coolant recovery tank is boiling,
don’t do anything else until it cools down.
