4. On vehicles with manual transaxle, place the gearshift
lever in the “N” (Neutral) position.
On vehicles with continuously variable transmission
(CVT) or Twin Clutch SST, make sure the selector lever
(CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) is in the
“P” (PARK) position.NOTE
On vehicles with CVT, the starter will not operate unless
the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position.
On vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, the starter will not
operate unless the gearshift lever is in the “P” (PARK)
position or the gearshift lever is in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position with the brake pedal depressed.
For safety reasons, start the engine in the “P” (PARK)
position so that the wheels are locked.

vehicles or Twin Clutch SST vehicles at extremely cold
ambient temperature
When the ambient temperature is -4°F (-20°C) or lower on
vehicles with CVT, or -22°F (-30°C) or lower on vehicles with
Twin Clutch SST, it may not be possible to start from a stand-
still even with the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever
(Twin Clutch SST) in the “D” (DRIVE) position.
This phenomenon occurs because the transaxle has not warmed
up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem. If this occurs,
place the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin
Clutch SST) in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle
for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to drive nor-
mally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.
