Engine overheating
WARNING
Never attempt to remove the radiator cap until the engine has
been shut off and has fully cooled down. When the engine is hot,
the coolant is under pressure. Removing the cap while the engine
is still hot could release a spray of boiling hot coolant, which
could burn you very seriously.
If the engine overheats, safely pull off the road and stop the vehicle in a
safe place.
B If steam is coming from the engine compartment
Turn the engine off and get everyone away from the vehicle until it
cools down.
B If no steam is coming from the engine compartment
1.
2.
Keep the engine running at idling speed.
Open the hood to ventilate the engine compartment.
Confirm that the cooling fan is turning. If the fan is not turning, im-
mediately turn the engine off and contact your authorized dealer for
repair.
3.
After the engine coolant temperature has dropped, turn off the en-
gine.
If the temperature gauge stays at the overheated zone, turn the en-
gine off.
4.
After the engine has fully cooled down, check the coolant level in
the reserve tank.
If the coolant level is below the “MIN” mark, add coolant up to the
“
5.
MAX” mark.
If there is no coolant in the reserve tank, add coolant to the reserve
tank. Then remove the radiator cap and fill the radiator with coolant.
If you remove the radiator cap from a hot radiator, first wrap a thick
cloth around the radiator cap, then turn the cap counterclockwise
slowly without pressing down until it stops. Release the pressure from
9-14
