but adhere to the following NOTE and IMPORTANT statements while starting the engine.
NOTE:
When starting the engine when the ambient temperature is below 5°C (40°F),the engine will cycle through a period
during which it will sound as though it is struggling to stay running. This is the engine's warm-up mode. The throttle
will be nonresponsive while the engine is in warm-up mode. Warm-up mode lasts between 30 seconds and 3 minutes
depending on the temperature. The throttle will become active after the engine has stabilized and is idling normally.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT operate the engine above 1500 rpm until the engine's coolant temperature is above 40°C (100°F).
