EMERGENCY - Low Oil Pressure Lamp 7. Add oil if necessary. If the problem persists, contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible. WARNING CAUTION 2 This should be considered an emer- gency. You should stop the vehicle as safely as possible and turn OFF the ig- nition. The vehicle must be serviced and the problem corrected before driv- ing again. Failure to do so may cause severe engine or Diesel Particulate Fil- ter damage, or cause an accident which may result in death or personal injury. Continuing to operate your vehicle with insufficient oil pressure will cause seri- ous engine damage. Failure to comply may result in equipment or property damage.
Engine is Overheating The cooling system may overheat if the coolant level is below normal or if there is sudden loss of coolant. Follow these steps if the engine is overheating. It is important to maintain oil pressure within acceptable limits. If oil pressure drops below the minimum psi (kPa) a Red Warning Lamp on the oil pressure gauge will illuminate and the Stop Engine Lamp will come ON. 1. Slow down carefully. 2. Move a safe distance off the road and stop. 3. Place the transmission in neutral (park with automatic transmissions, if equipped) and set the parking brake. 4. Turn OFF the engine. 5. Turn ON the emergency flasher and use other warning devices to alert other motorists. 6.
Wait a few minutes to allow oil to drain into the engine oil pan, and then check the oil level. Low Oil Pressure Lamp The low oil pressure warning lamp will illuminate when the engine oil pressure drops which can cause damage to the engine. CAUTION The cooling system may overheat if the engine coolant is at the minimum level. A sudden loss of coolant, caused by a split hose or broken hose clamp could also lead to an overheat condition. Always inspect to ensure hoses and clamps are not cracked, worn, or loose. Failure to comply may result in equipment or property dam- age. 42 Y53-6047-2HEN (03/18)
