The engine can be started in any gear if the
brake pedal is applied. However, it is recom-
mended to shift into neutral before starting
the engine.
4. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, start
the engine by turning the key to “” (start).
If the engine fails to start, release the key, and then
try starting it again. Wait a few seconds before the
next attempt. Each attempt should be as short as
possible, to preserve battery energy. NOTICE: Do
not crank the engine more than 5 seconds on
each attempt, or starter damage could occur.
Wait at least 5 seconds between each opera-
tion of the electric starter to let it cool.
Do not turn the key to the “” (start) position with
the engine running; otherwise, damage to the
electric starter may result.
TIPFor maximum engine life, never accelerate hard
when the engine is cold!
