● If the engine is very hard to start in ex-

tremely cold weather or when restarting,

depress the accelerator pedal a little (ap-

proximately 1/3 to the floor) and while

holding, crank the engine. Release the

accelerator pedal when the engine starts.

● If the engine is very hard to start because

it is flooded, depress the accelerator

pedal all the way to the floor and hold it.

Push the ignition switch to the ON posi-

tion to start cranking the engine. After 5 or

6 seconds, stop cranking by pushing the

ignition switch to LOCK. After cranking

the engine, release the accelerator pedal.

Crank the engine with your foot off the

accelerator pedal by depressing the

brake pedal and pushing the push-button

ignition switch to start the engine. If the

engine starts, but fails to run, repeat the

above procedure.

CAUTION

Do not operate the starter for more than

15 seconds at a time. If the engine does

not start, push the ignition switch to the

OFF position and wait 10 seconds before

cranking again, otherwise the starter

could be damaged.

4. Warm-up

Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 sec-

onds after starting. Do not race the engine

while warming it up. Drive at moderate

speed for a short distance first, especially in

cold weather. In cold weather, keep the en-

gine running for a minimum of2-3minutes

before shutting it off. Starting and stopping

the engine over a short period of time may

make the vehicle more difficult to start.

5. To stop the engine, shift the shift selector to

the P (Park) position (CVT) or to N (Neutral)

and apply the parking brake (M/T) and push

the ignition switch to the OFF position.
