What is the Transmission High Temperature Warning Message?
• Under certain driving conditions such as stop-and-go driving or
driving slowly up a hill, the clutches tend to have more slip. This
condition tends to heat up the transmission.
• If the transmission temperature gets too high, a chime will sound
and a warning message will appear in the instrument cluster LCD
display.
• If this occurs, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible and allow
the transmission to cool with the engine running. After the
transmission cools, the vehicle may be driven normally.
What if I’m Driving in Stop-and-Go Traffic?
• Whenever possible, come to a complete stop with your vehicle and
allow a gap to form in front of you. Then accelerate and move
forward.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for additional info on the DCT.
