Engine Cooling When Trailering
Your cooling system may temporarily overheat during
severe operating conditions such as:
Climbing grades steeper than
4%
at temperatures
above
90"
F
(32"
C)
with a loaded vehicle and
trailer.
0
Stopping after high-speed driving.
0
Idling for long periods in stop and
go
traffic.
If the TEMP warning light comes on, pull to the side of
the road
as
soon as it is safe to do
so.
When the vehicle
is at
a
complete stop, shift the transmission selector to
PARK (P) and allow the engine to idle. If your
Electronic Climate Control system is on, shut it
off.
Do
not turn
off
the engine
or
increase engine speed above a
normal idle. Within two or three minutes, the system
should cool sufficiently, and you can turn on the
Electronic Climate Control. At that time, resume driving
at a reduced speed. Return to normal driving after
10
minutes if the
TEMP
warning light is not displayed.
Maintenance When Trailer Towing
Your vehicle will need service more often when you're
pulling a trailer. See the Maintenance Schedule
for
more
on
this.
Things that are especially important in trailer
operation are automatic transmission fluid (don't
overfill), engine oil, axle lubricant, belts, cooling
system, and brake adjustment. Each of these is covered
in this manual, and the Index will help you find them
quickly. If you're trailering, it's a good idea to review
these sections before you start your trip.
Check
periodically to
see
that
all
hitch nuts
and
bolts
are
tight.
