To unlock
Turn the key to the “ACC” position while moving
the steering wheel slightly.
CAUTIONl Remove the key when leaving the vehicle.

Starting E00601600404
Tips for starting l Do not operate the starter motor continuous-
ly for anything longer than 10 seconds; do-
ing so could run down the battery. If the en-
gine does not start, turn the ignition switch
back to “LOCK” position, wait a few sec-
onds, and then try again.
Trying repeatedly with the starter motor still
turning will damage the starter mechanism.
l If the engine cannot be started because the
battery is weak or dead, refer to the “Emer-
gency starting” section for instructions on
starting the engine.
l The engine is well warmed up if the coolant
temperature gauge needle starts to move (the
engine speed decreases). Extended warming-
up operation will result in excessive fuel con-
sumption.WARNINGl Never run the engine in a closed or poor-
ly ventilated area any longer than is nee-
ded to move your vehicle in or out of the
area. Carbon monoxide gases are odour-
less and can be fatal.CAUTIONl Never attempt to start the engine by push-
ing or pulling the vehicle. Especially the
automatic transmission, since the struc-
ture is different from a manual transmis-
sion, it is not possible to start the engine
by using this technique. Never attempt
this or it could damage the automatic
transmission.
l Do not run the engine at high rpm or
drive the vehicle at high speed until the en-
gine has had a chance to warm up.
l Release the ignition key as soon as the en-
gine starts to avoid damaging the starter
motor.
l Do not stop the engine immediately after
high-speed or uphill driving. First allow
the engine to idle to give the turbocharg-
er a chance to cool down.Starting the engine E00601702223
1.Insert the ignition key and fasten the seat belt.
2. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
3. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
4. On vehicles with manual transmission, place

formation.Catalytic converter E01000200925
For ordinary use, there are no particular precautions.
The exhaust gas scavenging devices used with the
catalytic converter are extremely efficient for the re-
duction of noxious gases. The catalytic converter is
installed in the exhaust system.
It is important to keep the engine properly tuned to
ensure proper catalyst operation and prevent possi-
ble catalyst damage.CAUTIONl Damage to the catalytic converter can re-
sult if your vehicle is not kept in proper
operating condition. In the event of an en-
gine malfunction particularly involving
engine misfire or other apparent loss of
performance, have your vehicle serviced
promptly.
Continued operation of your vehicle with
a severe overheated condition may result
in possible damage to the converter and
vehicle.WARNINGl As with any vehicle, do not park or oper-
ate this vehicle in areas where combusti-
ble materials such as dry grass or leaves
can come in contact with a hot exhaust
since a fire could occur.
l Paint should not be applied to the catalyt-
ic converter.
