The following warning lamps and
indicators will alert you to a vehicle
condition that may become serious. Some
lamps will illuminate when you start your
vehicle to make sure they work. If any
lamps remain on after starting your vehicle,
refer to the respective system warning
lamp for further information. Note:
Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp but do not display
when you start your vehicle.
Anti-lock Braking System Warning
Lamp If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. You will continue
to have the normal braking system
(without anti-lock braking system) unless
the brake system warning lamp is also
illuminated. Have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer.
Brake System Warning Lamp It will illuminate when you
engage the parking brake with
the ignition on.
If it illuminates when you are driving, check
that the parking brake is not engaged. If
the parking brake is not engaged, this
indicates low brake fluid level or a brake
system malfunction. Have your vehicle
checked immediately by an authorized
dealer. WARNING
Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance
may occur. It will take you longer to stop
your vehicle. Have your vehicle checked by
your authorized dealer immediately. Driving
extended distances with the parking brake
engaged can cause brake failure and the
risk of personal injury. Cruise Control Indicator

ENGINE
Note:
You can only operate the starter for
a limited period of time, for example 10
seconds. The number of start attempts is
limited to approximately six. If you exceed
this limit, the system will not allow you to
try again until a period of time has elapsed,
for example 30 minutes.
When you start the engine, the idle speed
increases, this helps to warm up the
engine. If the engine idle speed does not
slow down automatically, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
Before starting the engine check the
following:
• Make sure all occupants have fastened
their safety belts.
• Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.
• Make sure the parking brake is on.
• Move the transmission selector lever
to position P (automatic transmission)
or neutral (manual transmission).
• Turn the ignition key to position II. If
your vehicle is equipped with a keyless
ignition, see the following instructions.

Engine Idle Speed after Starting
The speed at which the engine idles

certain factors. These include vehicle
component and ambient temperatures as
well as electrical and climate system
demands.

to zero. This will lead to premature
turbocharger bearing wear. Release the accelerator pedal. Wait until
the engine has reached idle speed and then
switch it off.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION
Using the Clutch
Note:
Failure to fully depress the clutch
pedal to the floor may cause increased shift
efforts, prematurely wear transmission
components or damage the transmission.
Note: Do not drive with your foot resting on
the clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal to
hold your vehicle at a standstill while
waiting on a hill. These actions will reduce
the life of the clutch and could nullify a
clutch warranty claim. Manual transmission vehicles have a
starter interlock that prevents cranking the
engine unless the clutch pedal is fully
depressed.
Starting Your Vehicle
WARNING
Make sure the floor mat is positioned
correctly so that it does not interfere
with the full extension of the clutch
pedal. 1.
Make sure the parking brake is fully set
and move the transmission selector
lever to the neutral position.
2. Fully depress the clutch pedal then start the engine. 3. Press the brake pedal and move the
transmission selector lever to first or
reverse gear.
4. Release the parking brake and slowly release the clutch pedal while slowly
pressing on the accelerator.
During each shift, make sure you fully
depress the clutch pedal.
Recommended Shift Speeds
Note: Do not move the transmission
selector lever to first gear when your vehicle
is moving faster than 15 mph (24 km/h).
This will damage the clutch.
We recommend you change gear
according to the following guide to achieve
the best fuel economy for your vehicle. Recommended
