Tips for startingThe operation mode can be in any mode to start the
engine.
The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately
15 seconds if the engine switch is released at once. Press-
ing the engine switch again while the starter motor is still
turning will stop the starter motor. The starter motor will
be turning for up to approximately 30 seconds while the
engine switch is pressed.
If the engine does not start, wait for a while and then
attempt to start the engine again. Trying repeatedly with
the starter motor still turning will damage the starter
mechanism.
If the engine will not start because the battery is weak or
discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 6-
2 for instructions.A longer warm up period will only consume extra fuel.
The engine is warmed up enough for driving when the low
coolant temperature indicator goes out.
Refer to “Low coolant temperature indicator” on page 3-
110.
Starting the engineYour vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel
injection system. This is a system that automatically controls
fuel injection. There is usually no need to depress the accelera-
tor pedal when starting the engine.
To prevent battery drain, wait a few seconds between attempts
to restart the engine.
1. Make sure all occupants are properly seated with seat
belts fastened.
2. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
WA R N I N G
!Never run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated
area any longer than is needed to move your vehicle
out of the area. Carbon monoxide gas, which is
odorless and extremely poisonous, could build up
and cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
!Do not push-start the vehicle.Do not run the engine at high rpms or drive at high
speeds until the engine has had a chance to warm
up.
