STARTING A GASOLINE
ENGINE
Note: You can only operate the starter for
a limited period of time, for example 10
seconds. The number of start attempts is
limited to approximately six. If you exceed
this limit, the system will not allow you to
try again until a period of time has elapsed,
for example 30 minutes.
When you start the engine, the idle speed
increases, this helps to warm up the
engine. If the engine idle speed does not
slow down automatically, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
Before starting the engine check the
following:
Make sure all occupants have fastened
their safety belts.
Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.
Make sure the parking brake is on.
Move the transmission selector lever
to position P (automatic transmission)
or neutral (manual transmission).
Turn the ignition key to position II. If
your vehicle is equipped with a keyless
ignition, see the following instructions.
