The starter motor consumes a
large amount of current. Do not
therefore run it continuously for
more than 5 seconds at a time. If
the engine does not start within 5
seconds, wait at least 10 seconds
before running the starter motor
again.
Do not turn the engine switch
key to the START position while
the engine is running.
FAST IDLE LEVER
5. After starting the engine, return the
fast idle lever slowly to the
position where the engine does not
stall and hold the lever in the
position.
STARTING THE ENGINE (R type)
6. After starting, check whether the
cooling water is flowing out of the
cooling water check hole. Amount
of water flowing out of the check
hole might vary due to the
thermostat operation, but this is
normal.
