vehicle checked.

• Make sure all occupants buckle their safety belts.
• Make sure the headlamps and electrical accessories are off.
• Make sure the parking brake is set.
• Make sure the gearshift is in position P.
• Turn the key to on without turning the key to start.
Some warning lights briefly illuminate.
