Starter Switch
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough room
around the vehicle.
2 . Firmly apply both the parking brake (see "Parking
Brake" in the Index if necessary) and the regular
brake.
NOTE: Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be
ready to turn off the engine immediately if
it
starts.
3. On automatic transaxle vehicles, try to start the
engine in each gear. The starter should work only in
PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). If the starter works in
any other position, your vehicle needs service.
On manual transaxle vehicles, put the shift lever in
NEUTRAL (N), push the clutch down halfway and
try to start the engine. The starter should work only
when the clutch is pushed down all the way to the
floor. I f the starter works when the clutch isn't
pushed all the way down, your vehicle needs service.
