If Engine Fails To Start

WARNING!
• Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid
into the throttle body air inlet opening in an
attempt to start the vehicle. This could
result in flash fire causing serious personal
injury.
WARNING! (Continued)
• Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle
to get it started. Vehicles equipped with an
automatic transmission cannot be started
this way. Unburned fuel could enter the
catalytic converter and once the engine
has started, ignite and damage the con-
verter and vehicle.
• If the vehicle has a discharged battery,
booster cables may be used to obtain a
start from a booster battery or the battery
in another vehicle. This type of start can be
dangerous if done improperly. Refer to
"Jump-Starting" in "What To Do In Emer-
gencies" for further information.

occurs, release the accelerator pedal and the
brake pedal, wait 10 to 15 seconds, then repeat
the "Normal Starting" procedure.

will decrease as the engine warms up.
