vehicle will usually be drivable. However, see an autho-
rized dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is
flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is

elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may
require towing.

to cool.

stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL and idle the ve-
hicle. If the temperature reading does not return to
normal, turn the engine off immediately and call for
service. Refer to “If Your Engine Overheats” in “What To
Do In Emergencies” for further information.
NOTE:
When the transmission is shifted to Neutral,
activate the parking brake to prevent the vehicle from
rolling away.
