Starting and driving

NOTE:
. If the engine is difficult to start, de-

press the accelerator pedal all the way
to the floor and hold it. Push the
ignition switch with the brake pedal
depressed to start cranking the engine.
After 5 or 6 seconds, stop cranking by
pushing the ignition switch to the OFF
position, and then release the accel-
erator pedal. Then perform steps 1 to 5
to start the engine. If the engine starts,
but fails to run, repeat this procedure.

. Starting and stopping the engine over a

short period of time may make the
vehicle more difficult to start. If this
occurs, wait for more than 3 minutes,
and then press the ignition switch
again to start the engine.

. To maintain high performance over a

long period of time, the engine speed is
limited to 5,000 rpm when the engine is
revved with the shift lever in the

&

N

or

&

P

position, and to 4,000 rpm when the

engine oil or coolant temperature is
low or higher than normal.

. If the ignition switch is pressed before

the shift lever is moved to the

&

P

position, the ignition switch will not

change to the OFF position. If this
occurs, the SHIFT

&

P

warning display

appears on the vehicle information
display. When stopping the engine, be
sure to move the shift lever to the

&

P

position and then press the ignition
switch. Failure to do so may result in
discharge of the battery. (

“Shift

“P” warning” page 2-41)

. If the shift lever was in the

&

A

&

M

or

&

R

position when the engine was stopped,
then be sure to move the shift lever to
the

&

P

position before starting the

engine the next time. If the engine is
started with the shift lever in the

&

N

position, then it may not be possible to
drive the vehicle even when the shift
lever is moved to the

&

A

&

M

or

&

R

position. If this occurs, the SHIFT

&

P

warning appears on the vehicle infor-
mation display. (

“Shift “P” warn-

ing” page 2-41)

CAUTION

If the engine was stopped soon when
the engine is hot, the cooling fan may
operate for approximately 2 minutes
after the engine was stopped to cool

the components in the engine compart-
ment. When the cooling fan is operat-
ing, be sure that hands or other items
do not get caught in it.
