When it is difficult to start the
engine
After several attempts, you may experience
that the engine still does not start.
1. Make sure that all electric devices, such
as lamps, air conditioning blower and
rear window demister, are turned off.
2. While depressing the brake pedal on ve-
hicles equipped with CVT or the clutch
pedal on the vehicles equipped with
manual transmission, press the accelera-
tor pedal halfway and hold it there, then
crank the engine. Release the accelerator
pedal, immediately after the engine
starts.
3. If the engine still will not start, the en-
gine could be flooded with too much
petrol. While depressing the brake pedal
on vehicles equipped with CVT or the
clutch pedal on the vehicles equipped
with manual transmission, push the ac-
celerator pedal all the way down and
hold it there, then press the engine
switch to crank the engine. If the engine
does not start after 5 to 6 seconds, push
the engine switch to stop cranking the
engine, and release the accelerator pedal.
Put the operation mode in OFF. Wait a
few seconds, and then press the engine
switch to crank the engine again while
depressing the brake pedal or the clutch
pedal, but do not push the accelerator
pedal. If the engine fails to start, repeat
these procedures. If the engine still will
not start, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked.
Startability of CVT vehicle with ambient
temperature of -20 °C or lower
When the ambient temperature is -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-
mission 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 transmission will warm up, and you will
be able to start normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up op-
eration.
Stopping the engine
[Except for vehicles equipped
with keyless operation system]
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
2. Firmly apply the parking brake while de-
pressing the brake pedal.
3. For vehicles equipped with M/T, turn the
ignition switch to the “LOCK” position
to stop the engine, and then move the
gearshift lever to the 1
st
(on a uphill) or
“R” (Reverse) (on a downhill) position.
For vehicles equipped with CVT, place
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) po-
sition, and stop the engine.
