Startability of continuously variable transmission (CVT)
vehicles with an ambient temperature of -22
°
F (-30
°
C) or
lower
When the ambient temperature is -22
°
F (-30
°
C) or lower, it
may not be possible to start from a standstill even with the
selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) position.
This phenomenon occurs because the transaxle has not warmed
up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem. If this occurs,
place the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the
engine idle for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to start nor-
mally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.
Stopping the engine
N00568200014
NOTE
●
If you have to bring the engine to an emergency stop
while driving, press and hold the engine switch for 3 sec-
onds or more, or press it quickly 3 times or more. The
engine will stop and the operation mode will go to ACC.
●
On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), do not stop the engine with the selector
lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position.
If the engine is stopped with the selector lever in any posi-
tion other than the “P” (PARK) position, the operation
mode will go to ACC rather than OFF.
Put the operation mode in OFF after placing the selector
lever in the “P” (PARK) position.
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Fully engage the parking brake while depressing the brake
pedal.
3. On vehicles with a manual transaxle, press the engine
switch to stop the engine, and then move the gearshift
lever to the 1st (on a uphill) or “R” (Reverse) (on a down-
hill) position.
On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), move the selector lever to the “P”
(PARK) position, and then press the engine switch to stop
the engine.
If the F.A.S.T.-key is not operating properly
N00568300028
Insert the F.A.S.T.-key into the key slot in the glove box. Start-
ing the engine and changing the operation mode should be now
possible.
Remove the F.A.S.T.-key from the key slot after starting the
engine or changing the operation mode.
WARNING
!
●
Do not operate the engine switch while driving
except in an emergency. If the engine is stopped
while driving, the brake servomechanism will cease
to function and braking efficiency will deteriorate.
Also, the power steering system will not function
and it will require greater manual effort to operate
the steering. This could result in a serious accident.
