[Except for vehicles equipped with the turbocharger] The engine is warmed up enough for driv- ing when the bar graph of engine coolanttemperature display starts to move. A lon- ger warm up period will only consume extra fuel. [For vehicles equipped with the turbo- charger] The engine is warmed up enough for driv-ing when the bar graph of engine coolanttemperature display starts to move. Driv- ing before the bar graph moves may cause deterioration of turbocharger performanceand driveability. A longer warm up period will only consume extra fuel. On vehicles equipped with the Twin Clutch SST, the following may occur after the engine is started, but they do not indi- cate an abnormality.• You may hear operational sounds of the Twin Clutch SST and you may feel vibration in the vehicle body.• If you shift the gearshift lever into the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and depress the accelerator pedal, increases in theengine speed will be limited.
