Chevrolet Spark Owners Manual: Engine Overheating

The vehicle has an indicator to warn of the engine overheating. See Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light on page 5-18.

If the decision is made not to lift the hood when this warning appears, get service help right away. See Roadside Assistance Program on page 13-5.

If the decision is made to lift the hood, make sure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.

Then check to see if the engine cooling fan is running. If the engine is overheating, the fan should be running. If it is not, do not continue to run the engine. Have the vehicle serviced.

Caution

Running the engine without coolant may cause damage or a fire. Vehicle damage would not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
