Do not start your vehicle in a closed garage or in other enclosed areas. See Guarding against exhaust fumes in this chapter for more instructions. If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer inspect your vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you smell exhaust fumes.
Important safety precautions A computer system controls the engine's idle revolutions per minute (RPM). If the engine idle speed does not slow down automatically, have the vehicle checked. For more information on safety belts and their proper usage, refer to the Seating and safety restraints chapter. If starting a vehicle with an automatic transmission: · Make sure the parking brake is set.
· Make sure the gearshift is in P (Park).

Starting the engine Note: Whenever you start your vehicle, release the key as soon as the engine starts. Turn the key to 4 (START) without pressing the accelerator pedal and release as soon as the engine starts. 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. 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. When the engine starts, release the key, then release the accelerator pedal gradually as the engine speeds up. After idling for a few seconds, apply the brake, shift into gear and drive. 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.
