If

no
sign
of
steam,
try this for
a
minute or
so:
I.
Turn off your air conditioner.
2.
Turn
on
your heater to
full
hot at the highest fan
speed and open the window as necessary.
3.
If you’re in
a
traffic jam, shift
to
NEUTRAL
(N);
otherwise, shift to the highest gear while
driving
--
AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE
(@)
or
DRIVE
(D).
If you
no
longer have the overheat warning, you can
drive. Just to be
safe,
drive slower for about ten minutes.
If the warning doesn’t come back
on,
you can drive
normally.
If the warning continues, pull over, stop, and park your
vehicle right away.
If there’s still
no
sign of steam,
you
can idle the engine
for two
or
three minutes while you’re parked, to see
if
the warning stops. But then, if you still have the
warning,
turn
off
the engine
and
get everyone out ofthe
vehicle
until it cools down.
You
may decide not to
lift
the hood but to get service
help right away.
