Turn on your heater tofull hot at thehighest fan speed and open the window as necessary. 3. If you're in a traffic jam, shift to "N" (Neutral). If you no longer have the overheat warning, you can drive. Just to besafe, driveslower foraboutten minutes. If the warningdoesn'tcomeback on, you can drive normally. If the warning continues, pull over, stop, and park your vehicle right away.
