short range.
 


y The engine can be started when the
push button start is pressed from off,
ACC, or ON.
 


y The push button start system functions
(function which can start the engine

Key Battery is Dead on page 4-8 .
 


y After starting a cold engine, the engine
speed increases and a whining sound
from the engine compartment can be
heard.
  This is for improved exhaust gas
puri¿ cation and does not indicate any
parts defect.
 


y Engine-starting is controlled by the
spark ignition system.
  This system meets all Canadian
