to change the ignition to the ACC position.
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a
second time to change the ignition to the
RUN position.

third time to return the ignition to the OFF
position.
Keyless Enter-N-Go Starting Procedure —
Engine Manifold Air Temperature 0° F To
66° F (–18° C to 19° C)
NOTE:
The temperature displayed in the instrument
cluster does not necessarily reflect the engine
manifold air temperature. Refer to "Instrument
Cluster Display" in "Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel" for further information.
When engine temperatures fall below 66°F
(19°C) the "Wait To Start" telltale will remain on
indicating the intake air heater system is active.
Follow the steps in the "Normal Starting"
procedure except:
1. Pushing the ENGINE START/STOP button
with the driver's foot on the brake will
move the ignition from OFF or ACC to RUN,
and will illuminate the "Wait To Start"
telltale. The engine will not immediately
crank, this is normal operation.
2. The "Wait To Start" telltale will remain on for
a period of time that varies depending on
the engine temperature.
STARTING AND OPERATING
3. While the "Wait to Start" telltale is on, the
instrument cluster will additionally display a
gauge or bar whose initial length represents
the full "Wait to Start" time period. Its length
will decrease until it disappears when the
"Wait to Start" time has elapsed.
CAUTION!
If the "Water in Fuel Indicator Light" remains
on, DO NOT START the engine before you
drain the water from the fuel filters to avoid
engine damage. Refer to "Draining Fuel/
Water Separator Filter" in "Servicing And
Maintenance" for further information.
4. After the engine "Wait To Start" telltale goes
off, the engine will automatically crank.
CAUTION!
Do not crank engine for more than 25 seconds
at a time or starter motor damage may result.
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and
wait at least two minutes for the starter to cool
before repeating start procedure.
