GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Extended idling at high engine
speeds can produce very high
temperatures in the engine and
exhaust system, creating the risk of fire or
other damage. Do not park, idle or drive your vehicle
on dry grass or other dry ground
cover. The emission system heats up
the engine compartment and exhaust
system, creating the risk of fire. Do not start the engine in a closed
garage or in other enclosed areas.
Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always
open the garage door before you start the
engine. If you smell exhaust fumes inside
your vehicle, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer
immediately. Do not drive your vehicle if
you smell exhaust fumes. If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle
may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics for approximately 5 miles
(8 kilometers) after you reconnect it. This
is because the engine management system
must realign itself with the engine. You can
disregard any unusual driving
characteristics during this period.
The powertrain control system meets all
Canadian interference-causing equipment
standard requirements regulating the
impulse electrical field or radio noise.
When you start the engine, avoid pressing
the accelerator pedal before and during
operation. Only use the accelerator pedal
when you have difficulty starting the
engine. KEYLESS STARTING
Note:
The keyless starting system may not
function if the key is close to metal objects
or electronic devices such as cellular
phones.
Note: A valid key must be located inside
your vehicle to switch the ignition on and
start the engine.
Ignition Modes The keyless starting system has three
modes:
Off: Turns the ignition off.
• Without applying the brake pedal,
press and release the button once
when the ignition is in the on mode, or
when the engine is running but the
vehicle is not moving.
On:
All electrical circuits are operational
and the warning lamps and indicators
illuminate.
• Without applying the brake pedal,
press and release the button once.
Start:
Starts the engine.
• Press the brake pedal (automatic
transmission) or clutch pedal (manual
transmission), and then press the
button for any length of time. An
indicator light on the button illuminates
when the ignition is on and when the
engine starts.

3. With the key in this position, press the
brake pedal (automatic transmission)
or clutch pedal (manual transmission),
then the START button to switch the
ignition on and start your vehicle.
Fast Restart
The fast restart feature allows you to
restart the engine within 20 seconds of
switching it off, even if a valid key is not
present.
Within 20 seconds of switching the engine
off, press the brake pedal (automatic
transmission) or clutch pedal (manual
transmission) and press the button. After
20 seconds have expired, you can no
longer restart the engine without the key
present inside your vehicle.
Once the engine has started, it remains
running until you press the button, even if
the system does not detect a valid key. If
you open and close a door while the engine
is running, the system searches for a valid
key. You cannot restart the engine if the
system does not detect a valid key within
20 seconds.
Failure to Start
If you cannot start the engine after three
attempts, wait 10 seconds and follow this
procedure:
1. If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, fully press the
brake pedal. If your vehicle is equipped
with a manual transmission, fully press
the clutch pedal and apply the
handbrake.
2. Move the transmission selector lever to park (P) (automatic transmission)
or neutral (manual transmission).
3. Fully press the accelerator pedal and hold it there.
4. Start the engine. Automatic Engine Shutdown
Your vehicle is equipped with a feature that
automatically shuts down the engine if it
has been idling for an extended period. The
ignition also turns off in order to save
battery power. Before the engine shuts
down, a message appears in the
information display showing a timer
counting down from 30 seconds. If you do
not intervene within 30 seconds, the engine
shuts down. Another message appears in
the information display to inform you that
the engine has shut down in order to save
fuel. Start your vehicle as you normally do.
Automatic Engine Shutdown Override
Note:
You cannot permanently switch off
the automatic engine shutdown feature.
When you switch it off temporarily, it turns
on at the next ignition cycle.
You can stop the engine shutdown, or reset
the timer, at any point before the
30-second countdown has expired by
doing any of the following:
• You can reset the timer by interacting
with your vehicle (such as pressing the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal).
• You can temporarily switch off the
shutdown feature any time the ignition
is on (for the current ignition cycle
only). Use the information display to
do so. See Information Displays
(page 80).
• During the countdown before engine
shutdown, you are prompted to press
OK or RESET (depending on your type
of information display) to temporarily
switch the feature off (for the current
ignition cycle only).
Stopping the Engine When Your
Vehicle is Stationary
1. Move the transmission selector lever to park (P) (automatic transmission)
or neutral (manual transmission).

MANUAL TRANSMISSION
Using the Clutch
Note:
Failure to fully press the clutch pedal
to the floor may cause increased shift
efforts, prematurely wear transmission
components or damage the transmission.
Note: Do not drive with your foot resting on
the clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal to
hold your vehicle at a standstill while
waiting on a hill. These actions will reduce
the life of the clutch and could nullify a
clutch warranty claim. Manual transmission vehicles have a
starter interlock that prevents cranking the
engine unless the clutch pedal is fully
pressed.
To start the vehicle:
1.
Make sure the parking brake is fully set.
2. Press the clutch pedal to the floor, then
put the gearshift lever in the neutral
position.
3. Start the engine.
4. Press the brake pedal and move the gearshift lever to the desired gear; first
(1) or reverse (R).
5. Release the parking brake, then slowly
release the clutch pedal while slowly
pressing on the accelerator. During each shift, the clutch pedal must
be fully pressed to the floor. Make sure the
floor mat is properly positioned so it
doesn't interfere with the full extension of
the clutch pedal.
Recommended Shift Speeds
Note:
Do not downshift into first (1) when
your vehicle is moving faster than 15 mph
(24 km/h). This will damage the clutch.

Reverse
Note: Make sure that your vehicle is at a
complete stop before you shift into reverse
(R). Failure to do so may damage the
transmission.
1. Press the clutch pedal to the floor to disengage clutch.
2. Shift into reverse (R) by raising the collar below the gearshift knob up, then
moving the lever fully to the left, then
forward. Note:
The gearshift lever can only be
moved to reverse (R) by raising the collar
below the gearshift knob up before shifting
to reverse. This is a lockout feature which
protects the transmission from accidentally
engaging reverse (R) when intending to
select first (1).
If reverse (R) is not fully engaged, press
the clutch pedal down and return the
gearshift to the neutral position. Release
the clutch pedal for a moment, then raise
the collar and shift to reverse (R) again.
Parking Your Vehicle WARNING
Do not park your vehicle in neutral
(N), it may move unexpectedly and
injure someone. Use first (1) gear and
set the parking brake fully. To park your vehicle:
1. Apply the brake and shift into the
neutral position.
2. Fully apply the parking brake, hold the clutch pedal down, then shift into first
(1).
3. Turn the ignition off.
