PROPER OPERATION
3-6
WARMING UP ENGINE
Make sure to warm up the engine for about 5 minutes regardless
of whether the ambient temperature is cold or not.
If the truck is operated before warming up the engine sufficiently,
the inside of the engine is not properly lubricated and the
combustion is incomplete, thus resulting in a damaged engine.
STARTING COLD ENGINE
In a cold climate, the battery performance drops and the viscosity
of the lubricating oil increases to make it difficult to crank the
engine.
Start a cold engine using the following manner:
NOTE
After the engine starts, release your foot from the accelerator
pedal. Do not race the engine.
1) Turn the starter switch to clockwise to “PREHEAT”.
2) Preheat the engine for about 20 seconds. Press the
accelerator pedal and turn the starter switch beyond the “ON”
position to the “START” position to start the engine. Do not
keep the starter motor engaged for more than 10 seconds at a
time. After the engine has started, release your hand from the
key, and it will automatically return to the “ON” position.
3) If the engine won’t start after trying to start the engine three
times, check the battery for the state of charge or fuel level.
WHEN ENGINE WON’T START
CAUTION
Never try to start the engine by pushing or towing the truck.
•
Do not keep the starter motor engaged for more than 10
seconds at a time. If the engine does not start 10 seconds after
engaging the starter motor, stop the operation of the starter
motor. Wait for a while and start all over again.
•
If the engine is hard to start despite several tries, check the fuel
level in the fuel tank, the fuel system for mixing of air, or the
electrical wiring for a broken wire.
•
The engine might not start if the starter motor does not reach
a specified rpm. If this is the case, start the engine using an
auxiliary battery and booster cable.
NOTE
For “Starting with Auxiliary Battery”, see page 4-18.
