3.
Disengage (depress) the clutch
(with manual transmission).
4.
Turn the ignition switch to START.
NOTE
If Anti-Theft is enabled, you will need
to enter the Passcode in order to start
the engine (see Anti-Theft).
5.
If the engine does not start within
30 seconds, release the ignition
switch. To avoid overtaxing the
starter motor or the batteries, don’t
use the starter for more than 30
seconds. Let the starter motor cool
and the batteries recover for two
minutes before trying again. If the
engine still won’t start after a
couple of tries, check the fuel lines
for possible fuel starvation or air
leaks. Starting failure may mean
fuel is not reaching the injectors.
6.
As soon as the engine starts, begin
to watch the oil pressure gauge.
Check your engine manufacturer’s
manual for the right pressure for
your engine. If the oil pressure
doesn’t rise within a few seconds,
stop the engine. Find out what is
wrong before restarting the engine.
7.
Slowly engage (release) the clutch
after the engine has started.
8.
Wait for the oil pressure gauge to
reach normal operating pressure
before operating the vehicle or
idling faster than 1,000 rpm.
Tips to Remember When Starting
Vehicle in Cold Weather
If you follow a few simple guidelines, you
will extend the service life of your engine:
•
Keep the electrical system in top
condition.
•
Use the best quality fuel of the
recommended grade.
•
Use recommended engine
lubricating oil.
•
For manual transmissions and
auxiliary transmissions, leave the
transmission in neutral and allow
the transmission lubricating oil to
warm up (approximately 3-5
minutes) before operating vehicle.
Engine Block Heater (Option)
To preheat the engine before starting, plug
the optional engine block heater into a
properly grounded AC electrical source.
DO NOT start the engine with the heater
plugged in.
WARNING
Engine block heaters can cause fires
which may result in property damage,
personal injury, or death if not properly
maintained and operated. Regularly in-
spect the engine block heater wiring
and connector for damaged or frayed
wires. DO NOT use the heater if there
are any signs of problems. Contact
your authorized dealer or the manufac-
turer of the heater if you are in need of
repairs or information.
CAUTION
Always unplug heater before starting
the engine. Damage to the cooling
system could occur if the heater is not
turned OFF (unplugged).
Depending on engine make, when the
temperature falls below -10°F (-24°C), the
block heater is required.
