STARTING THE ENGINE

1. Turn the key to 5

(START) without

pressing the

accelerator pedal and

release as soon as the

engine starts. The key

will return to 4 (ON).

2. If the temperature is above –12°C (10°F) and the

engine does not start within five seconds on the first

try, turn the key to OFF, wait ten seconds and try

again.

3. If the temperature is below –12°C (10°F) and the

engine does not start in fifteen seconds on the first

try, turn the key OFF and wait ten seconds and try

again. If the engine does not start in two attempts,

depress the accelerator and start the engine while

holding the accelerator down to the floor. Release

the accelerator when the engine starts.

4. After idling for a few seconds, apply the brake

and release the parking brake.

Using the engine block heater (if equipped)

An engine block heater warms the engine coolant,

which improves starting, warms up the engine faster

and allows the heater-defroster system to respond

quickly. Use of an engine block heater is strongly

recommended if you live in a region where

temperatures reach –23°C ( –10°F) or below.

For best results, plug the heater in at least three

hours before starting the vehicle. Using the heater

for longer than three hours will not harm the engine,

so the heater can be plugged in the night before

starting the vehicle.

To prevent electrical shock, do not use your

heater with ungrounded electrical systems

or two-pronged (cheater) adapters.
