Engine Coolant
Temperature Warning
Light
The engine coolant temperature
light should come on briefly as the
engine is started. If it does not come
on have the vehicle serviced by
your dealer/retailer.
Notice: Driving with the engine
coolant temperature warning light
on could cause the vehicle to
overheat. See Engine Overheating
on page 10‑20 . The vehicle's
engine could be damaged, and it
might not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Never drive with
the engine coolant temperature
warning light on.
If this light comes on and stays on,
the engine has overheated. Pull
over and see Engine Overheating
on page 10‑20 for more information.

For vehicles with a tire pressure
monitoring system, this light comes
on briefly when the engine is
started. It provides information
about tire pressures and the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System.

This indicates that one or more of
the tires are significantly
underinflated.
A tire pressure message in the
Driver Information Center (DIC), can
accompany the light. See Tire
Messages
on page 5‑37 for more
information. Stop as soon as
possible, and inflate the tires to the
pressure value shown on the tire
loading information label. See Tire
Pressure
on page 10‑50 for more
information.
When the Light Flashes First and
Then is On Steady

problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitor System. The light flashes
for about a minute and stays on
steady for the remainder of the
ignition cycle. This sequence
repeats with every ignition cycle.
