If Steam Is Coming From Your Engine

{CAUTION:

Steam from an overheated engine can

burn you badly, even if you just open the

hood. Stay away from the engine if you

see or hear steam coming from it.

Just turn it off and get everyone away

from the vehicle until it cools down.

Wait until there is no sign of steam or

coolant before you open the hood.

If you keep driving when your engine is

overheated, the liquids in it can catch ﬁre.

You or others could be badly burned.

Stop your engine if it overheats, and get

out of the vehicle until the engine is cool.

Notice: If your engine catches ﬁre because

you keep driving with no coolant, your vehicle

can be badly damaged. The costly repairs

would not be covered by your warranty.

If No Steam Is Coming From

Your Engine

If you get an engine overheat warning, but see or

hear no steam, the problem may not be too

serious. Sometimes the engine can get a little

too hot when you:

• Climb a long hill on a hot day.

• Stop after high-speed driving.

• Idle for long periods in traffic.

If you get the overheat warning with no sign of

steam, try this for a minute or so:

1. In heavy traffic, let the engine idle in

NEUTRAL (N) while stopped. If it is safe to do

so, pull off the road, shift to PARK (P) or

NEUTRAL (N) and let the engine idle.

2. Turn on your heater to full hot at the highest

fan speed and open the windows as

necessary.
