Starting Your Engine
Move your shift lever to PARK
(P)
or NEUTRAL
(N).
Your engine won’t start in any other position
--
that’s a
safety feature. To restart when you’re already moving,
use NEUTRAL
(N)
only.
NOTICE:
Holding your key in
START
for longer than
15
seconds
at
a
time will cause your battery to be
drained much sooner. And the excessive heat can
damage your starter motor.
NOTICE:
Don’t
try
to shift to
PARK (P)
if your Chevrolet
is
moving.
If
you do, you could damage the
transaxle. Shift to
PARK (P)
only when your
vehicle
is
stopped.
To
start
your engine:
1.
Without pushing the accelerator pedal,
turn
your
ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let
go
of
the key. The idle speed will go down as your
engine gets warm.
2.
If
your engine won’t start (or starts but then stops),
it
could be flooded with too much gasoline. Try
pushing your accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor
and holding it there as you hold the key in
START for about three seconds. If the vehicle starts
briefly but then stops again, do the same thing, but
this time keep the pedal down for five or six seconds.
This clears the extra gasoline from the engine.
