Automatic equipped vehicles with optional Keyless
Enter-N-Go™ – If the start button is pushed once
while in park with the ignition off and driver’s foot on
the brake pedal, the vehicle will automatically crank
and start after the Wait to Start time has elapsed. If it is
desired to abort the start process before it completes,
the driver’s foot should be fully removed from the
brake pedal prior to pushing the start button again in
order for the ignition to move directly to off.

If the engine stalls, or if the ignition switch is left ON
for more than two minutes after the “Wait To Start”
telltale goes out, reset the grid heaters by turning the
ignition switch to the OFF position for at least five
seconds and then back ON. Repeat steps 1 through 5 of
“Starting Procedure – Engine Manifold Air Tempera-
ture Below 66°F (19°C).”
Starting Procedure — Engine Manifold Air
Temperature Below 0°F (-18°C)
In extremely cold weather below 0°F (-18°C) it may be
beneficial to cycle the manifold heaters twice before
attempting to start the engine. This can be accomplished
by turning the ignition OFF for at least five seconds and
then back ON after the “Wait To Start” telltale has turned
off, but before the engine is started. However, excessive
cycling of the manifold heaters will result in damage to
the heater elements or reduced battery voltage.
NOTE:If multiple pre-heat cycles are used before start-
ing, additional engine run time may be required to
maintain battery state of charge at a satisfactory level.
1. If the engine stalls after the initial start, the ignition
must be turned to the OFF position for at least five
seconds and then to the ON position to recycle the
manifold heaters.
