IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by taking
the appropriate action:
•Onthehighways—slowdown.
•Incitytraffic—whilestopped,shiftthetransmissiontoNEUTRAL,butdonotincrease
engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
•Ifyourairconditioner(A/C)ison,turnitoff.TheA/Csystemaddsheattotheengine
cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
•Youcanalsoturnthetemperaturecontroltomaximumheat,themodecontroltofloor
and the blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to the
radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner
turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on
HOT (H), and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off immediately, and call for
service.
WARNING!

mileages specified to protect your vehicle warranty and ensure the best vehicle perfor-
mance and reliability. More frequent maintenance may be needed for vehicles in severe
operating conditions, such as dusty areas and very short trip driving. Inspection and
service should also be done anytime a malfunction is suspected.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 6,000 miles (10 000 km)
or six months, whichever comes first.
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required maintenance items may result in damage to the vehicle.
