Starting Your Engine

This vehicle has a computer system that monitors

engine speed, throttle and pedal position, and records

the current status.

Automatic Transmission

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:

Don’t try to shift to PARK (P) if your vehicle

is moving. If you do, you could damage the

transmission. Shift to PARK (P) only when

your vehicle is stopped.

Manual Transmission

The gear selector should be in neutral and the parking

brake engaged. Hold the clutch pedal to the floor and

start the engine. Your vehicle won’t start if the clutch

pedal is not all the way down

-- that’s a safety feature.

1. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, turn the

ignition key to START. When the engine starts,

let go of the key. The idle speed will go down as

your engine gets warm.

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. Wait about

15 seconds between each try to help avoid

draining your battery or damaging your starter.
