Driving Your Vehicle
Starting the Engine
✽
If the engine stalls while you are in motion,
do not attempt to move the shift lever to P
(Park).
If it is safe to do so considering traffic and
road conditions, you may put the shift lever
in the N (Neutral) position while still moving
and turn the ignition switch to the START
position in an attempt to restart the engine.

2.
Make sure the parking brake is applied.
Manual Transaxle - Depress the clutch pedal fully
and shift the transaxle into NEUTRAL. Keep the
clutch pedal depressed while cranking the engine.
The starter will not operate if the clutch pedal is not
fully depressed.
Automatic Transaxle - Place the transaxle shift
lever in P (Park). Depress the brake pedal fully.
You can also start the engine if the shift lever is in
the N (Neutral) position.
3.
Turn the ignition switch to START and hold it there
until the engine starts (a maximum of 10 seconds),
then release the key.
If the engine fails to start using this procedure, attempt
the following.
The engine fails to start when the engine is cold
(engine coolant temperature is below 32°F/0°C):
A no start condition may be caused by an engine that
has become flooded (has excessive fuel in the cylin-
ders). If this is the case, follow the starting procedure
below.
In extremely cold weather, below minus 18°C (0°F), or
after the vehicle has not been operated for several
days, let it warm up without depressing the accelerator.
Whether the engine is cold or warm, it should be start-
ed without depressing the accelerator.
