OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Starting the Engine
WARNING
Never run an engine in an enclosed area. Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide and can
cause loss of consciousness, resulting in severe injury or death.
Starting a cold engine
1.
Verify the gear selector is shifted to the Park or Neutral position.
2.
Apply the foot brake.
3.
Turn the engine stop switch and main key switch to “(ON)”
4.
Verify the throttle is completely closed, then turn the key start switch.
5.
Once the engine starts, continue to warm the engine for a short period before operating the vehicle.
NOTE:
Do not activate the starting system more than 10 seconds on each attempt. If the engine fails to start, release
the start switch, pause a few seconds before the next attempt, then try the start switch again. Each attempt
should be as short as possible to preserve battery energy.
The engine can be started in any gear if the brake is applied. However, a best practice is to shift into Neutral
or Park before starting the engine. If the neutral indicator light on the dashboard does not come on when the
gear selector is in the neutral position, contact your dealer to inspect the indicator electrical circuit or adjust
the gear shifting system.
