Subaru Forester: Automatic Transmission (AT) / Instrument cluster display for warning message

The instrument cluster displays the following transmission-related warning messages whenever the corresponding operating condition is detected:


Message	Description
	Transmission Hot! Park with engine on During demanding driving conditions, including repeated hard acceleration or frequent stop-and-go operation, the transmission temperature may become excessively high. The Kia Telluride protection system will display this warning message and sound an audible alert. Move the vehicle to a safe location, stop with the engine running, keep the brake pedal applied, shift into P (Park), and allow the transmission sufficient time to cool. If the warning remains after the transmission has cooled, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
	Vehicle power limited due to high transmission temperature This warning appears when the transmission reaches its maximum operating temperature while driving. To protect the transmission, the Kia Telluride automatically limits available driving power. Normal vehicle performance may be temporarily restricted until the transmission cools. Move to a safe location, keep the engine running, shift into P (Park), and wait several minutes until the warning message disappears. If the warning continues to appear after the transmission has cooled, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Kia dealer to help prevent unexpected driving issues.
	Trans cooled. Resume driving. Once this message appears, the transmission has cooled to a normal operating temperature and you may continue driving your Kia Telluride under normal conditions.

WARNING

If any transmission-related warning message continues to flash or repeatedly reappears on the instrument cluster, stop driving as soon as it is safe to do so and have your Kia Telluride inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
