erated for about ten minutes at least once a
month. This helps prevent damage to the
system due to lack of lubrication.
°
If the coolant temperature gauge exceeds
the “HOT” position, turn the air conditioner
off. See “If your vehicle overheats ”in the “In
case of emergency” section for additional
information.
°
If the engine coolant reaches an extremely
high temperature, the air conditioning sys-
tem will automatically turn off. This may
happen for example if the engine is run at
idle for a long time on a hot day.
