CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS
Starting the Engine
Make sure that the switches, including those for the windshield wiper, light control and
air conditioner, are in the off position.
Switch the power mode to "ON" (models with passive entry and start system) or turn
the starter switch to the "ON" position (models without passive entry and start system)
to check that the warning and indicator lights turn on normally and the fuel level is
proper.
Starting the Engine
WARNING
• Do not keep the starter switch in the "START" position for more than
approximately 10 seconds (models without passive entry and start system).
Operating the starter for too long might cause battery failure or might result in
overheating and even a fire.
ADVICE
• Using a dirty or dusty key may possibly damage the starter switch. Make sure to
wipe off any dirt or dust, etc., before inserting the key (models without passive
entry and start system).
• Do not use starting aids such as ether in the air intake system. Such aids can
cause immediate engine damage.
• When the engine does not start, wait for 1 minute or more before pushing the
engine start/stop button (models with passive entry and start system) or turning
the starter switch (models without passive entry and start system) again.
• Do not rev the engine when it is still cold immediately after having been started.
