 Do not operate the starter motor continu-
ously for longer than 15 seconds as this
could run the battery down or damage the
starter motor. If the engine does not start,
turn the ignition switch back to the
“LOCK” position, wait a few seconds,
and then try again. Trying repeatedly with
the engine or starter motor still turning
will damage the starter mechanism.
 If the engine will not start because the bat-
tery is weak or discharged, refer to
“Jump-starting the engine” (on page 8-2)
for instructions.
 The engine is warmed up enough for driv-
ing when the bar graph of engine coolant
temperature display starts to move. A lon-
ger warm up period will only consume
extra fuel.

cally controlled fuel injection system, which
automatically controls the release of fuel.
There is usually no need to depress the accel-
erator pedal when starting the engine.
The starter should not be run for more than
15 seconds at a time.
To prevent battery drain, wait a few seconds
between attempts to restart the engine.

down (manual transaxle).
6. On vehicles with manual transaxle, place
the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral)
position.
On vehicles with continuously variable
transmission (CVT), make sure the selec-
tor lever is in the “P” (PARK) position.

Tips for starting
WARNING
 Never run the engine in a closed or poorly
ventilated area any longer than is needed
to move your vehicle out of the area. Car-
bon monoxide gas, which is odorless and
extremely poisonous, could build up and
cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
 Do not push-start the vehicle.
 Do not run the engine at high rpms or drive
at high speeds until the engine has had a
chance to warm up.
 Release the ignition switch as soon as the
engine starts. Otherwise, the starter motor
will be damaged.
Starting the engine
NOTE
 For models equipped with a manual trans-
axle, the starter will not operate unless the
clutch pedal is fully depressed (Clutch inter-
lock). This is a safety feature.
