You may want to run the engine a little longer to see whether the smoke eventually dissipates. Just keep a close eye on the temp gauge and don't let the needle rise above the halfway mark before you shut the engine off (if it begins to overheat).

Code 62 would be 6 long flashes and two short ones. Maybe code 6 (ECT) and 20 (ELD)?
