“HOTOIL” Transmission Temperature Warning Message
The “HOTOIL” cluster message will appear in the odometer
accompanied with a chime to indicate that there is excessive
transmission fluid temperature that might occur with severe
usage such as trailer towing. It may also occur when
operating the vehicle in a high torque converter slip condi-

off-road operation). If this “HOTOIL” message turns on,
stop the vehicle and run the engine at idle or faster with the

Press and release the STEP button on the steering wheel
to access the options in the Compass display.NOTE:
The system will display the last known outside

displayed temperature; therefore, temperature readings
are not updated when the vehicle is not moving.

4. To complete the compass calibration, drive the vehicle in one or more complete 360–degree circles, under
5 mph (8 km/h) in an area free from power lines and
large metallic objects, until the CAL indicator turns
off. The compass will now function normally.
