The steering wheel is unlocked and
electrical accessories are operative.
NOTICE
If difficulty is experienced turning
the ignition switch to the ACC posi‐
tion, turn the key while turning the
steering wheel right and left to re‐
lease the tension.
ON
The warning lights can be checked be‐
fore the engine is started. This is the normal running position after the en‐
gine is started.
Do not leave the ignition switch ON if
the engine is not running to prevent battery discharge.
START
Turn the ignition switch to the START
position to start the engine. The engine will crank until you release the key;
then it returns to the ON position. The
brake warning light can be checked in this position.
WARNING

•The anti-theft steering columnlock is not a substitute for theparking brake. Before leaving thedriver’s seat, always make surethe shift lever is engaged in 1stgear for the manual transaxle or P(Park) for the automatic transaxle,set the parking brake fully andshut the engine off. Unexpectedand sudden vehicle movementmay occur if these precautions arenot taken.
•Never reach for the ignitionswitch, or any other controlsthrough the steering wheel whilethe vehicle is in motion. The pres‐ence of your hand or arm in thisarea could cause a loss of vehiclecontrol, an accident and seriousbodily injury or death.
•Do not place any movable objectsaround the driver’s seat as theymay move while driving, interferewith the driver and lead to an acci‐dent.

WARNING
•Always wear appropriate shoeswhen operating your vehicle. Un‐suitable shoes (high heels, skiboots,etc.) may interfere withyour ability to use the brake andaccelerator pedal, and the clutch(if equipped).
•Do not start the vehicle with theaccelerator pedal depressed. Thevehicle can move and lead to anaccident.
•Wait until the engine rpm is nor‐mal. The vehicle may suddenlymove if the brake pedal is releasedwhen the rpm is high.

pedal, it prevents you from driving
at full throttle unintentionally by
making the driver require increased
effort to depress the accelerator
pedal. However, if you depress the
pedal more than approximately 80%,
the vehicle can be at full throttle and
the accelerator pedal will be easier
to depress. This is not a malfunction
but a normal condition.
Starting the gasoline engine
1. Make sure the parking brake is ap‐plied.
2.
Manual Transaxle - Depress the
clutch pedal fully and shift the
transaxle into Neutral. Keep the
clutch pedal and brake pedal de‐
pressed while turning the ignition
switch to the start position.
Automatic Transaxle - Place the
transaxle shift lever in P (Park). De‐ press the brake pedal fully.
You can also start the engine when
the shift lever is in the N (Neutral)position.

3. Turn the ignition switch to STARTand hold it there until the engine
starts (a maximum of 10 seconds),
then release the key.
It should be started without de‐pressing the accelerator pedal.
4. Do not wait for the engine to warm up while the vehicle remains sta‐
tionary.
Start driving at moderate engine
speeds. (Steep accelerating and de‐ celerating should be avoided.)
CAUTION
If the engine stalls while you are inmotion, do not attempt to move theshift lever to the P (Park) position. Iftraffic and road conditions permit,you may put the shift lever in the N(Neutral) position while the vehicle isstill moving and turn the ignitionswitch to the START position in anattempt to restart the engine.
CAUTION
•Do not engage the starter formore than 10 seconds. If the en‐gine stalls or fails to start, wait 5to 10 seconds before re-engagingthe starter. Improper use of thestarter may damage it.
•Do not turn the ignition switch tothe START position with the en‐gine running. It may damage thestarter.
Starting the diesel engine
To start the diesel engine when the en‐
gine is cold, it has to be pre-heated be‐ fore starting the engine and then have
to be warmed up before starting to
drive. 1. Make sure the parking brake is ap‐ plied. 2.
Manual Transaxle -
Depress the
clutch pedal fully and shift the
transaxle into Neutral. Keep the
clutch pedal and brake pedal de‐ pressed while turning the ignition
switch to the start position.
Automatic Transaxle - Place the
transaxle shift lever in P(park). De‐
press the brake pedal fully.
You can also start the engine when
the shift lever is in the N(neutral) position.

4. If the glow indicator light goes out,turn the ignition switch to the
START position and hold it there
until the engine starts (a maximum
of 10 seconds), then release the
key.
NOTICE
If the engine is not started within 10
seconds after the preheating is com‐
pleted, turn the ignition switch once
more to the LOCK position during 10
seconds, and then to the ON posi‐
tion, in order to preheat again.
Starting and stopping the engine
for turbocharger intercooler
1. Do not race or accelerate the en‐ gine immediately after starting.
If the engine is cold, idle for several
seconds before sufficient lubrica‐
tion is ensured in the turbocharger
unit. 2. After high speed or extended driv‐
ing, requiring a heavy engine load,
idle the engine about 1 minute be‐
fore turning it off.
This idle time will allow the turbo‐ charger to cool prior to shutting off
the engine.
CAUTION
Do not turn off the engine immedi‐ately after it has been subjected to aheavy load. Doing so may cause se‐vere damage to the engine or turbo‐charger unit.

nKick down mechanism (if
equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with a kick
down mechanism in the accelerator
pedal, it prevents you from driving
at full throttle unintentionally by
making the driver require increased
effort to depress the accelerator
pedal. However, if you depress the
pedal more than approximately 80%,
the vehicle can be at full throttle and
the accelerator pedal will be easier
to depress. This is not a malfunction
but a normal condition.
Starting the gasoline engine
1. Carry the smart key or leave it in‐side the vehicle.
2. Make sure the parking brake is firmly applied. 3.
Manual Transaxle

transaxle shift lever in P (Park). De‐ press the brake pedal fully.
You can also start the engine when
the shift lever is in the N (Neutral)position.
4. Press the engine start/stop button.
It should be started without de‐pressing the accelerator.
5. Do not wait for the engine to warm up while the vehicle remains sta‐
tionary.
Start driving at moderate engine
speeds. (Steep accelerating and de‐
celerating should be avoided.)
CAUTION
Do not turn the ignition switch tothe START position with the enginerunning. It may damage the starter.

To start the diesel engine when the en‐
gine is cold, it has to be pre-heated be‐
fore starting the engine and then have to be warmed up before starting to
drive. 1. Make sure the parking brake is ap‐ plied.

•Always check the surroundingareas near your vehicle for people,especially children, before shiftinga car into D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
•Before leaving the driver’s seat, al‐ways make sure the shift lever isin the P (Park) position; then setthe parking brake fully and shutthe engine off. Unexpected andsudden vehicle movement can oc‐cur if these precautions are notfollowed in the order identified.
•Do not use the engine brake (shift‐ing from a high gear to lower gear)rapidly on slippery roads.The vehicle may slip causing an ac‐cident.
CAUTION
•To avoid damage to your trans‐axle, do not accelerate the enginein R (Reverse) or any forward gearposition with the brakes on.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•When stopped on an incline, do nothold the vehicle stationary withengine power.Use the service brake or the park‐ing brake.
•Do not shift from N (Neutral) or P(Park) into D (Drive), or R (Reverse)when the engine is above idlespeed.
Transaxle ranges
The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into P (Park). This position
locks the transaxle and prevents the drive wheels from rotating.
WARNING
•Shifting into P (Park) while the ve‐hicle is in motion will cause thedrive wheels to lock which willcause you to lose control of thevehicle.
•Do not use the P (Park) position inplace of the parking brake. Alwaysmake sure the shift lever is latch‐ed in the P (Park) position and setthe parking brake fully.
•Never leave a child unattended in avehicle.
CAUTION
The transaxle may be damaged ifyou shift into P (Park) while the ve‐hicle is in motion.
R (Reverse)
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.
