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 10

seconds and try again.

3. If the temperature is below -12° C (10° F) and the engine does not start

in 15 seconds on the first try, turn the key OFF and wait 10 seconds and try

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

pedal all the way to floor and hold. Turn the key to START position.

4. When the engine starts, release the key, then release the accelerator

pedal gradually as the engine speeds up.

5. 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.
