If the telltale turns on while driving,
safely pull over and stop the vehicle. If

ture reading does not return to nor-
mal, turn the engine off immediately
and call for service. Refer to “If Your
Engine Overheats” in “What To Do In
Emergencies” for more information.

Warning Telltale
This telltale indicates that
the transmission fluid tem-
perature is running hot. This
may occur with severe usage,
such as trailer towing. If this telltale

in some circumstances you could
cause the fluid to boil over, come in
contact with hot engine or exhaust
components and cause a fire.

mately 10 seconds after a single chime
has sounded to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The en-
gine oil change indicator system is
