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. See Overheated Engine

Protection Operating Mode (4.6L V8 Engine) on

page 5-40 for information on driving to a safe place

in an emergency.

If No Steam Is Coming From Your

Engine

An overheat warning, along with a low coolant message,

can indicate a serious problem. See DIC Warnings

and Messages on page 3-62.

If you get an engine overheat warning with no low

coolant message, 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 safe to do so, pull off the road,

shift to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) and let the

engine idle.

2. Set the climate controls to the highest heat setting

and fan speed and open the windows as necessary.

If you no longer have the overheat warning, you

can drive. Just to be safe, drive slower for about

10 minutes. If the warning does not come back on,

you can drive normally.

If the warning continues, pull over, stop, and park your

vehicle right away.

If there is still no sign of steam, idle the engine for

three minutes while you are parked. If you still have the

warning, turn off the engine and get everyone out of

the vehicle until it cools down. Also, see “Overheated

Engine Protection Operating Mode” later in this section.

You may decide not to lift the hood but to get service

help right away.
