(if so equipped)
The F.A.S.T.-key must be carried by the driver. The F.A.S.T.-key is required for vehicle operations su
ch as locking and
unlocking the doors and the liftgate,starting the engine, and changing the operation mode. When
leaving the vehi-

WA R N I N G Individuals who use
implantable pace-
makers or implanta
ble cardiovascular-
defibrillators
should keep away from the
external and internal
transmitters. The
electromagnetic waves used in the F.A.S.T.-key may affect the operation of implantable pacemakers and implantablecardiovascular-defibrillators.

When a person enters the operating range ofthe F.A.S.T.-key while carrying the F.A.S.T.- key and presses the driver’s door lock/unlock switch the liftgate switch, verification of theID code is performed. The doors and the liftgate can only be locked and unlocked, the engine
can only be started
and the operation mode can only be changed when the ID codes of the vehicle and F. A . S . T. - k e y m a t c h .
A- External transmitter B- Internal transmitterWA R N I N G Individuals using ot
her electro-medical
apparatus besides implantable pacemak- ers and implantable
cardiovascular-defi-
brillators should check with themanufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic waves used by the F.A.S.T.-key. The electromag-netic waves may affect
the operations of
the electro-medical apparatus.
NOTE
 The F.A.S.T.-key uses weak electromagnetic waves.In cases such as the following, operation may be imprope
r or unstable.
• The vehicle is near a facility that emits strong electroma
gnetic waves, such as a TV
transmitting tower, a pow
er station, a radio
station or an airport • The key is carried together with other com- munication devices such
as cellular phones
or radios, or electrical appliances such as computers • The F.A.S.T.-key touches or is covered by a metal object • A keyless entry system is being used nearby • The battery of the F.A.S.T.-key is run down • The vehicle is in a location with strong electromagnetic
waves or noise
Use the emergency key in such circum- stances.Refer to “To operate
without using the
F.A.S.T.-key” on page 5-19.  The F.A.S.T.-key is constantly performing reception operations
in its communication
with the vehicle. This means that the battery is always running down, regardless of howoften the F.A.S.T.-key is used. The battery life is about 1 to 2 years, depending on the usage conditions.  Since the F.A.S.T.-key is constantly perform- ing reception operati
ons, the reception of
strong electrom
agnetic waves
can accelerate
the running down of the
battery. Do not place
near to electrical appliances such as televi-sions or computers.

Your vehicle is equipped with an electroni- cally controlled fuel in
jection system. This is
a system that automatically controls fuelinjection. There is usually no need to depress the accelerator pedal when starting the engine.To prevent battery drai
n, 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. 3. Press and hold the brake pedal down firmly with your right foot.
4. Press and hold the clutch pedal all the way down (manual transaxle). 5. On vehicles equippe
d with manual trans-
axle, place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) position.On vehicles equipped with continuously variable transmission (CVT), make sure the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK)position.
6. Press the engine switch. 7. Confirm that all wa
rning lights and warn-
ing displays are functioning properly.
After several attempts, you may experience that the engine still does not start. 1. Make sure that all electric devices, such as lights, air conditio
ning blower and rear
window defogger, are turned off.
WA R N I N G Never run the engine in
a closed or poorly
ventilated area any lo
nger than is needed
to move your vehicle out of the area. Car-bon monoxide gas, whic
h 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 th
e engine has had a
chance to warm up.
Starting the engine

NOTE
 After the engine has not
started for a while,
the brake pedal effort needed to start theengine may become grea
ter. If this occurs,
depress the brake pedal more firmly than usual.NOTE
 For vehicles equipped with a manual trans- axle, the engine will
not start unless the
clutch pedal is fully
depressed (Clutch inter-
lock). This is a safety feature.
NOTE
 On vehicles equippe
d with continuously
variable transmission (C
VT), the engine can
only be started when th
e selector lever is in
the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion. For safety reasons, the engine should bestarted when the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position in which the driving wheels lock.NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start- up. These will disappear as the engine warms up.
