and to protect against engine over-
heating. A solution of 50% ethylene
glycol antifreeze coolant and 50%
water is recommended. Refer to
“Maintenance Procedures” in “Main-
taining Your Vehicle” for proper cool-
ant selection.
WINTER OPERATION
To ensure the best possible heater and
defroster performance, make sure the
engine cooling system is functioning
properly and the proper amount,
type, and concentration of coolant is
used. Refer to “Maintenance Proce-
dures” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle”
for proper coolant selection. Use of
the air Recirculation mode during
Winter months is not recommended,
because it may cause window fogging.
VACATION/STORAGE
Before you store your vehicle, or keep
it out of service (i.e., vacation) for two
weeks or more, run the air condition-
ing system at idle for about five min-
utes, in fresh air with the blower set-
ting on high. This will ensureadequate system lubrication to mini-
mize the possibility of compressor
damage when the system is started
again.
WINDOW FOGGING
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the
inside in mild, rainy and/or humid
weather. To clear the windows, select
Defrost or Mix mode and increase the
front blower speed. Do not use the
Recirculation mode without A/C for
long periods, as fogging may occur.
OUTSIDE AIR INTAKE
Make sure the air intake, located di-
rectly in front of the windshield, is
free of obstructions such as leaves.
Leaves collected in the air intake may
reduce airflow, and if they enter the
plenum they could plug the water
drains. In Winter months make sure
the air intake is clear of ice, slush and
snow.
A/C AIR FILTER
On vehicles equipped with Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC), the cli-
mate control system filters out dustand pollen from the air. Refer to “Air
Conditioning” in “Maintaining Your
Vehicle” for filter replacement in-
structions.

STARTING
PROCEDURES
Before starting your vehicle, adjust
your seat, adjust the inside and out-
side mirrors, fasten your seat belt, and
if present, instruct all other occupants
to buckle their seat belts.
WARNING!
Never leave children alone in avehicle, or with access to an un-
locked vehicle. Allowing children
to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of rea-
sons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Chil-
dren should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake
pedal or the shift lever.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
Do not leave the key fob in or nearthe vehicle, or in a location acces-
sible to children, and do not leave
the ignition of a vehicle equipped
with Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the
ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows,
other controls, or move the ve-
hicle.
AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
The shift lever must be in the NEU-
TRAL or PARK position before you
can start the engine. Apply the brakes
before shifting into any driving gear.
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may
occur if the following precautions
are not observed:
Do not shift from REVERSE,PARK, or NEUTRAL into any
forward gear when the engine is
above idle speed.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
Shift into PARK only after thevehicle has come to a complete
stop.
Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to
a complete stop and the engine is
at idle speed.
Before shifting into any gear, make sure your foot is firmly on
the brake pedal.
Using Fob With Integrated Key
(Tip Start)
NOTE: Normal starting of either a
cold or a warm engine is obtained
without pumping or pressing the
accelerator pedal.
Do not press the accelerator. Use the
Fob with Integrated Key to briefly
turn the ignition switch to the START
position and release it as soon as the
starter engages. The starter motor will
continue to run, and it will disengage
automatically when the engine is run-
ning. If the engine fails to start, the
starter will disengage automatically in
10 seconds. If this occurs, turn the
231
Page 238 of 364

ignition switch to the LOCK position,
wait 10 to 15 seconds, then repeat the
“Normal Starting” procedure.
KEYLESS ENTER-N-GO™
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
This feature allows
the driver to oper-
ate the ignition
switch with the
push of a button,
as long as the EN-
GINE START/
STOP button is installed and the Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter is in the passenger
compartment.
Installing And Removing The
ENGINE START/STOP Button
Installing The Button
1. Remove the key fob from the igni-
tion switch.
2. Insert the ENGINE START/STOP
button into the ignition switch with
the lettering facing up and readable. 3. Press firmly on the center of the
button to secure it into position.
Removing The Button
1. The ENGINE START/STOP but-
ton can be removed from the ignition
switch for key fob use.
2. Insert the metal part of the emer-
gency key under the chrome bezel at
the 6 o’clock position and gently pry
the button loose.
NOTE: The ENGINE START/
STOP button should only be re-
moved or inserted with the ignition
in the OFF position (OFF position
for Keyless Enter-N-Go™).
NORMAL STARTING —
GASOLINE ENGINE
Using The ENGINE START/STOP
Button
NOTE: Normal starting of either
a cold or a warm engine is ob-
tained without pumping or press-
ing the accelerator pedal.
To start the engine, the transmission
must be in PARK or NEUTRAL. Press
and hold the brake pedal while press-
ing the ENGINE START/STOP but-
ton once. The system takes over and
attempts to start the vehicle. If the
vehicle fails to start, the starter will
disengage automatically after 10 sec-
onds. If you wish to stop the cranking
of the engine prior to the engine start-
ing, press the button again.
To Turn Off The Engine Using
ENGINE START/STOP Button
1. Place the shift lever in PARK, then
press and release the ENGINE
START/STOP button.
2. The ignition switch will return to
the OFF position.
3. If the shift lever is not in PARK and
the vehicle speed is above 8 km/h, the
ENGINE START/STOP button must
be held for two seconds before the
engine shuts off. The ignition switch
position will remain in the ACC posi-
tion until the shift lever is in PARK
and the button is pressed twice to the
OFF position. If the shift lever is not
in PARK and the ENGINE START/
STOP button is pressed once, the
232
Page 239 of 364

EVIC will display a “Vehicle Not In
Park” message and the engine will
remain running. Never leave a vehicle
out of the PARK position, or it could
roll.
NOTE: If the ignition switch is left
in the ACC or RUN (engine not run-
ning) position and the transmis-
sion is in PARK, the system will
automatically time out after 30
minutes of inactivity and the igni-
tion will switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ Functions –
With Driver’s Foot OFF The
Brake Pedal (In PARK Or
NEUTRAL Position)
The Keyless Enter-N-Go™ feature
operates similar to an ignition switch.
It has four positions, OFF, ACC, RUN
and START. To change the ignition
switch positions without starting the
vehicle and use the accessories follow
these steps. Starting with the ignition switch in
the OFF position:
Press the ENGINE START/STOP button once to change the ignition
switch to the ACC position (EVIC
displays “IGNITION MODE
ACCESSORY”),
Press the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time to change the
ignition switch to the RUN position
(EVIC displays “IGNITION MODE
RUN”),
Press the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time to return the
ignition switch to the OFF position
(EVIC displays “IGNITION MODE
OFF”).
EXTREME COLD
WEATHER (BELOW 29°C)
To ensure reliable starting at these
temperatures, use of an externally
powered electric engine block heater
is recommended.
IF ENGINE FAILS TO
START
WARNING!
Never pour fuel or other flam-mable liquids into the throttle
body air inlet opening in an at-
tempt to start the vehicle. This
could result in a flash fire causing
serious personal injury.
Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. Ve-
hicles equipped with an auto-
matic transmission cannot be
started this way. Unburned fuel
could enter the catalytic con-
verter and once the engine has
started, ignite and damage the
converter and vehicle.

WARNING!(Continued)
If the vehicle has a dischargedbattery, booster cables may be
used to obtain a start from a
booster battery or the battery in
another vehicle. This type of start
can be dangerous if done improp-
erly. Refer to “Jump Starting” in
“What To Do In Emergencies” for
further information.
Clearing A Flooded Engine (Using
ENGINE START/STOP Button)
If the engine fails to start after you
have followed the “Normal Starting”
or “Extreme Cold Weather" proce-
dures, it may be flooded. To clear any
excess fuel:
1. Press and hold the brake pedal.
2. Press the accelerator pedal all the
way to the floor and hold it.
3. Press and release the ENGINE
START/STOP button once.
The starter motor will engage auto-
matically, run for 10 seconds, and then
disengage. Once this occurs, release the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal,
wait 10 to 15 seconds, then repeat the
“Normal Starting” procedure.
