The engine normally starts with the
IMA motor. If the engine does not
start while the IMA battery charge is
normally sufficient, check the
following:

Check the transmission interlock.
The transmission must be in Park
or neutral or the starter will not
operate.

Are you using a properly coded
key? An improperly coded key will
cause the immobilizer system
indicator in the instrument panel
to blink rapidly (see page

).

Do you have fuel? Check the fuel
gauge; the low fuel indicator may
not be working.

There may be an electrical
problem, such as no power to the
fuel pump. Check all the fuses
(see page

).

Are you using the proper starting
procedure? Refer to
