On vehicles equipped with CVT, make
sure the selector lever is in the “P”
(PARK) position.Vehicles with M/TVehicles with CVT
NOTEl The engine can only be started when the se-
lector lever is in the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position (CVT).
For safety reasons, the engine should be star-
ted when the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position in which the driving
wheels lock.
6. Press the engine switch.
7. Make sure that all warning lamps are
functioning properly.
NOTEl Minor noises may be heard on engine start-
up. These will disappear as the engine
warms up.
When it is difficult to start the engine
After several attempts, you may experience
that the engine still does not start. 1. Make sure that all electric devices, such
as lamps, air conditioning blower and
rear window demister, are turned off.
2. While depressing the brake pedal ( CVT)
or the clutch pedal ( M/T), press the ac-
celerator pedal halfway and hold it there, then crank the engine. Release the accel-erator pedal, immediately after the en-
gine starts.
3. If the engine still will not start, the en-
gine could be flooded with too much
petrol. While depressing the brake pedal (CVT ) or the clutch pedal ( M/T), push
the accelerator pedal all the way down and hold it there, then press the engine
switch to crank the engine. If the engine does not start after 5 to 6 seconds, push
the engine switch to stop cranking the
engine, and release the accelerator pedal. Put the operation mode in OFF. Wait a
few seconds, and then press the engine
switch to crank the engine again while
depressing the brake pedal ( CVT) or the
clutch pedal ( M/T), but do not push the
accelerator pedal. If the engine fails to
start, repeat these procedures. If the en-
gine still will not start, we recommend
you to have the vehicle checked.Starting the engine (diesel-pow-
ered vehicles)

E00510000070
l If the moving wipers become blocked by
ice or other deposits on the glass, the
motor may burn out even if the wiper switch is turned to OFF. If obstruction
occurs, park your vehicle in a safe place, turn off the engine, and clean the depos-
its from the glass so that the wipers op- erate smoothly.
l Do not use the wipers when the glass is
dry.
They may scratch the glass surface and the blades wear out prematurely.
l Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not fro-zen onto the glass. The motor may burn
out if the wipers are used with the blades
frozen onto the glass.
l Avoid using the washer continuously for
more than 20 seconds. Do not operate the washer when the fluid reservoir isempty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
l Periodically check the level of washer
fluid in the reservoir and refill if re-
quired.
During cold weather, add a recommen- ded washer solution that will not freeze
in the washer reservoir. Failure to do so
could result in loss of washer function and frost damage to the system compo- nents.Rear window demister
