When the ambient temperature is -4 °F (-20
°C) or lower, it may not be possible to start
from a standstill even with the selector lever
in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE)
position.
This phenomenon occurs because the trans-
axle 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 normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up
operation.

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
downhill) position.
On vehicles equipped with continuously
variable transmission (CVT), move the
selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position,
and then press the engine switch to stop
the engine.

Insert the F.A.S.T.-key into the key slot of the
floor console. Starting the engine and chang-
ing the operation mode should be now possi-
ble.
Remove the F.A.S.T.-key from the key slot
after starting the engine or changing the oper-
ation mode.
Stopping the engine
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 func-
tion and it will require greater manual
effort to operate the steering. This could
result in a serious accident.
NOTE
 If you have to bring the engine to an emer-
gency stop while driving, press and hold the
engine switch for 3 seconds 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 transmission (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 position other than the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion, 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) posi-
tion.
If the F.A.S.T.-key is not operat-
ing properly
NOTE
 Do not insert into the key slot anything other
than the F.A.S.T.-key. This could cause dam-
age or a malfunction.
