WARNING!
automatic transmission cannot be started
this way. Unburned fuel could enter the
catalytic converter and once the engine
has started, ignite and damage the con-
verter and vehicle. If the vehicle has a
discharged battery, booster cables may be
used to obtain a start from another vehicle.
This type of start can be dangerous if done
improperly, so follow the procedure care-
fully. Refer to “Jump-Starting Procedure”
in “In Case Of Emergency” for further
information.
Extreme Cold Weather (Below –22°F Or
−30°C)
To ensure reliable starting at these tempera-
tures, use of an externally powered electric
engine block heater (available from your au-
thorized dealer) is recommended.
If Engine Fails To Start
If the engine fails to start after you have
followed the “Normal Starting” and “Extreme
Cold Weather” procedures, it may be flooded.
Press the accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor and hold it there. Crank the engine for
no more than 15 seconds. This should clear
any excess fuel in case the engine is flooded.
Leave the ignition key in the ON position,
release the accelerator pedal and repeat the
“Normal Starting” procedure.
WARNING!
Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid
into the throttle body air inlet opening in
an attempt to start the vehicle. This could
result in flash fire causing serious personal
injury.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the starter, do not
crank the engine for more than 15 seconds
at a time. Wait 10 to 15 seconds before
trying again.
After Starting
The idle speed is controlled automatically,
and it will decrease as the engine warms up.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the
engine and drivetrain (transmission and axle)
in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles
(500
km). After the initial 60 miles
(100 km), speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or
90 km/h) are desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration
within the limits of local traffic laws contrib-
utes to a good break-in. Wide-open throttle
acceleration in low gear can be detrimental
and should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the
factory is a high-quality energy conserving
type lubricant. Oil changes should be consis-
tent with anticipated climate conditions un-
der which vehicle operations will occur. For
the recommended viscosity and quality
grades, refer to “Dealer Service” in “Servic-
ing And Maintenance”.
