STARTING PROCEDURES
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat,
adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and
fasten your seat belt.
The starter should not be operated for more
than 10-second intervals. Waiting a few sec-
onds between such intervals will protect the
starter from overheating.
WARNING!
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Leaving children
in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake
pedal or the shift lever/transmission gear selec-
tor. Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to children,
and do not leave the ignition of a vehicle
equipped with keyless Enter-N-Go in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
Normal Starting
Normal starting of either a warm or cold engine
is obtained without pumping or pressing the
accelerator pedal. Cycle the ignition to the
START position and release when the engine
starts. If the engine fails to start within 10
seconds, cycle the ignition to the OFF position,
wait five seconds, then repeat the “Normal
Starting” procedure.

position. Apply the brake before shifting into any
