And what happens if you run it for longer? Does the engine really overheat, or is it just a faulty temperature sensor that is thinking the engine is too hot and putting the fan on and gauge too high for no real reason?
You said earlier "the water reservoir and hoses do not feel too hot. There is no boiling." so that sounds more like an incorrect temperature reading to me rather than a real overheating fault.
